About the host
Hosted by Wes Blauvelt
Wes & Corbit settled at the end of Howland Road in the early 1970's. At that time the road was a narrow one lane dirt road; there was no electricity and they needed to ford a small stream to get to their building site. After retiring in 2013 from Cornell (Corbit) and healthcare (Wes) they built RavenBarn at the entrance to their property. RavenBarn provides a modern apartment for weekend guests and longer visitors, and a ceramic studio where they explore the art of mosaic and tile making.
