　　Logan Ward and his wife, Heather, were prototypical New

Yorkers circa 2000: their lives steeped in ambition, work, and

stress. Feeling their souls grow numb, wanting their toddler son to

see the stars at night, the Wards made a plan. They would return to

their native South, find a farm, and for one year live exactly as

people did in 1900 Virginia: without a car or electricity–and with

only the food they could grow themselves. It was a project that

would push their relationship to the brink–and illuminate stunning

hardships and equally remarkable surprises.

From Logan’s emotionally charged battles with Belle, the family

workhorse, to Heather’s daily trials with a wood-fired cooking

stove and a constant siege of garden pests and cantankerous

animals, the Wards were soon overwhelmed by their new life. At the

same time as Logan and Heather struggled with their increasingly

fragile relationship, as their son relished simple joys, the couple

discovered something else: within their self-imposed time warp,

they had found a community, a sense of belonging, and an

appreciation both for what we’ve lost–and what we’ve gained–across

a century of change.

It was a project that would push their relationship to the brink–and illuminate stunning hardships and equally remarkable surprises.

From Logan’s emotionally charged battles with Belle, the family workhorse, to Heather’s daily trials with a wood-fired cooking stove and a constant siege of garden pests and cantankerous animals, the Wards were soon overwhelmed by their new life.
