Synopsis

Tonight's Guest: Anne Hunt The Alpujarras, southern foothills of Spain's Sierra Nevadas, have threshing floors and communal ovens, but few farmers. This is agricultural land with a thousand year old system of water courses but terrain unsuited to modern farming techniques. We are on location in the Alpujarras with Anne Hunt, who was on sabbatical from organizing arts festivals in London, England when she fell in love with a 400 year old house with terra cotta olive oil pots you could hide in. Anne describes 10 years of restoration to create the guesthouse Casa Ana, getting to know and work with craftsmen and neighbors, and gardening in a common meadow using water from Moorish acequias. She makes doing this sound entirely imaginable.
