Hearth & Horn

I love a lot of your ideas but I hesitate to read much further, since I don't want to "steal" them for my own practice, and as it is, it seems Landcraft is for English people, or at least people who are in England. How do you feel about that? I don't mean to go "hey I practice Landcraft" and then do entirely my own thing, just to incorporate, very privately, ideas like correspondences and the separation of the three parts of the system.

I support any of these approaches. Stealing things and doing them your own way; saying you practice Landcraft, but doing something that ends up quite radically different from my startpoint; taking bits you like and using them privately; practicing Landcraft as I've laid it down, with very English reference points, despite living elsewhere; practicing Landcraft as I've laid it down, but exploring your own non-English reference points and filling it with something new. I share it, because I think some of it might be helpful for others; and I don't want to put bars or limits on what kinds of useful people might find, if that makes sense. And I think a lot of the bits of Fencraft lend themselves naturally to becoming radically different in the hands of each person using it.
