Days Creek, OR: Oregon Women's Land Trust, 1983 (second printing). 8vo. Stapled wrps., 32pp. Illustrated with photographs and drawings. Ed. Pegasis Touch and Eileen Hartwings.

Contents include a herstory of the OWL Farm (established in July 1976 when "sixteen wimmin met and formed the caretaker collective" near Days Creek in Southern Oregon), along with poetry, songs and personal reflections from residents, featuring contributions from Liz Crain, Ruth Mountaingrove, the editors, and others.

OWL Farm was one of several communities owned and run solely by lesbian women in Southern Oregon, and despite the hardships of rural existence, it lasted until the 1990s (the OWL Trust still exists and still owns the land, but no one lives on it and the community now meets on social media).
