About



Change~ How does it happen? From the bottom up? From the Top down?
I'm a believer that the seeds of change come from the rich soil of connection,
relationships and place. It doesn't matter where you are ---top, bottom,
middle...change happens because of our relationships with each other...
And by "each other" I mean building relationships with all forms of life~
 


 “again and again she warns us of the folly and danger of relying on “leaders”. Real power, she insists, lies in the hands of working men and women, and whenever they surrender it to others---employers, politicians, parties, bureaucrats, governments—they give up their only chance for real emancipation”.


Mary E. Marcy~

One of the most influential and best-loved revolutionary activist in U.S. history. Mary E. Marcy (1877-1922) was a leading figure in the Left Wing of the Socialist Party before and during the First World War. Eugine V. Debs called her "one of the clearest minds and greatest souls in all our movement." Many of Marcy's writings were published in the International Socialist Review

"Organic farming is rooted in ancient knowledge passed down through generations. Long before science could tell us why certain farming methods would produce greater crop yields, organic farmers were learning the hard way what worked and what didn't - and sharing their knowledge with others."
