Finding our place.

We often discuss the problems in the world - our unhealthy habits that hurt our environment and bodies, poverty and hunger, and divisiveness in our communities. We often wonder what can be done, how to change our ways, and where to even start. All these problems seem so hopeless, that no matter what we do, we can’t make a difference. 

We CAN make a difference. And the answer is remarkably simple. The great Wendell Berry speaks to the importance of knowing our place on this earth and the people within that place. Get to know both better than you know anything else. And most importantly, observe and take action when they ask for what they need from you.

Our place is this farm and the community that surrounds it. It is our life’s work to know and care for them both in a way that remains true to their nature. Guided by the soil in our fields, the water in the creeks, and the plants we grow, we’re hopeful that by living well with Creation we can start to make a difference and be part of the solution. We CAN heal our minds and bodies, we CAN heal the environment, and we CAN connect to and support those most in need.
