Soil and Water are inseparable but there is something else needed for them to help each other.

Behavior modification - THINK!
When conventional practices are killing us, maybe we should help each modify our behavior.

Spring has Sprung
In the ordinary, there is sacredness. May we find it in the least expected places - where new life might be waiting to be born.

Strength and tenderness are not mutually exclusive. You can see it in his face.

Kincraft
Learning together the skill of being in relation to the land might just change the world.

from soil to greatness
In memory of Jimmy Carter and in honor of humility, fidelity, and service.

Hope in the Darkness?
Can Hope simply be dormant - waiting for the right time to break through and live in a new way?

Oh, Hummingbird
Practice bizarre behavior - Look for the nectar in the Other - and, perhaps in a not so small way, save your part of the world.

God won't do it for you. You got to get up, even if you've been beaten down, and do something until everyone is free.

Restoring Missing Voices
Womanism helps us apply the Golden Rule to hear voices and songs once forgotten.

A Womanist Lens
With a womanist lens, we are given permission to question relentlessly in order to liberate the muted voices in our midst.

Longing for Home
Living responsibly in some small part of the world begins and ends with love and fidelity.

The soil is the great connector of lives,
the source and destination of all.
the source and destination of all.

An Unsettled Character
Seeing the ecological crisis as a crisis of character and the disease of specialization from which we need healing.

Unsettled in America
What would it look like if we finally settled as Americans and really intended to be where we live in the places where we are?

A Kitchen of Hope
Biscuits and compost offer hope and grace in the messy but very good new creations every day.

Kitchen Reflections
Follow trustworthy principles (and recipes) in farming and life but allow for adjustments. Reflect and trust your senses.

Kitchen Interactions
