Alethea Morrison

Alethea Morrison and photographer Mars Vilaubi lived in San Francisco before stepping into the wild yonder of rural Massachusetts to raise their son, keep bees and chickens, brew beer, sew clothes, grow heirloom beans, and otherwise slow down to smell the flowers of a handmade life. Their experience raising chickens was chronicled in Chick Days and they co-authored Homegrown Honey Bees, an absolute beginner's guide to keeping bees. They both work as creative professionals, and Alethea serves as president of the Northern Berkshire Beekeepers Association.
