Elaine Butler started working with the Philip Foster Farm in 1995, while homeschooling her six children. When the living history farm needed a few more volunteers, she would load up her young helpers to save the day. Now that they are grown, she divides her time between managing the Farm, teaching music and social studies, directing OrchEstraCada, playing piano with the Estacada First Baptist Church band, and spending time with her three grandchildren. She and her husband, Mike, live in Estacada.
