Tilth & Taper is where the ground gets turned until it gives up something true, and a small light is kept burning long enough to see it by. A membership community built on hard-won wisdom, seasonal rhythm and the kind of company that can sit with both.
As the days shorten, come sit with Lantern Season, our collection of fall compendiums, seasonal guides and journaling companions made for the slow turn into dark.
Welcome in. I'm so glad you found your way here. What you'll find on these pages took root a long time ago, carried in my heart and my head for the better part of twenty years while I waited for the right season to plant it. How it finally broke ground is a story I'd love to tell you, along with what I hope might grow from it. If you have a few minutes and a cup of something warm, come on in.
One edition a week, following the real sky, the real season and the holy days being kept somewhere by somebody. Free now and free for good.
The long essays, the month laid out before it starts and a room of people watching their own windows. The cheapest step from reading something to belonging to it.
The old year comes to your kitchen one day at a time, with its dish, its herb and one small keeping for the house. Nobody here is grading the bread.
A guided workbook every season and a fire lit at each of the four turnings. It is a room rather than a call, so nobody has to be free at the same hour.
The daily almanac and six printed pages every morning. Keep them and a year from now you are holding a book that exists nowhere else.
