Janie Stewart found a home at Magic Forest Farm in Takilma in the 1970s. Once in a while she'd travel to Ashland to participate in women's consciousness raising groups, bringing back some of these philosophies to the Farm. Later Stewart moved to Ashland where she earned an undergraduate degree in sociology at Southern Oregon College. Here's her stories of how she came to find her home and make a new way for herself.

Janie Stewart's oral history was collected on February 26, 2020 as part of the Rogue Valley Women's Movement documentation project funded by the Oregon Heritage Commission. The video was edited by Mary White Gently, PhD student at Rutgers University.
