Why Redwood Chapel?

The original structure on the property was a chapel for redwood cutters in the early 1900s. Original-growth redwood from the Santa Cruz Mountains contributed heavily to re-building San Francisco after the 1906 earthquake and fire. That original structure is now the living room of the house, which retains its original redwood paneling and brick fireplace.

The redwood grove behind the house is like a chapel made by mother nature.

A chapel is a place of worship. We find a higher power in physical work, in nature, in the dirt, in the changing seasons, in the transformation of flowers into fruit, and fruit into preserves, in the flight of bees, and in the songs of the birds.
