What is the setting of A Language Older Than Words by Derrick Jensen?

Jensen includes a variety of settings in his book. The primary setting and one that is mentioned the most, is Jensen's home near Spokane, Washington. Jensen tries to make his home an example of what he would like to see done to the entire world. He raises his own chickens for eggs. He also kills the chickens occasionally for meat. When he kills these chickens, he offers the carcasses to the coyotes. He sees this action as an agreement on his part to keep the coyotes from killing the chickens at will.
