In 1974, Greenfield moved to North Carolina with his fiancée to take what he now calls his ‘first retirement’ – a much needed three month break that allowed time for reflection.

For three years, he worked on this 600 acre property, building his own house, teaching pottery and other art techniques, as well as making ice cream with the students. |
