Coool… I once met someone from nearby Wilson, NC. When I described the Whirligig Farm, he had no idea what I was talking about at first, until he said, “oh, you mean the acid farm!”
Vollis is pretty friendly if you visit, and he’ll sell you a small metalwork piece from his shed pretty cheap.
Maybe you can film grass growing or paint drying next time?
