It's a lot about community.

The unrelenting industrialization of American agriculture isolated food producers from food consumers. Faceless corporations who were accountable only to their shareholders forced farmers into positions where their only real choice, if they wanted to remain in farming, was to do things the way the corporations wanted them done.

Now that is changing because consumers have finally awakened to their need for wholesome food, produced by people with integrity.

Wendell Berry once said

"The grace that is the health of creatures can only be held in common.

In healing the scattered members come together.

In health the flesh is graced, the holy enters the world."

(Essays by Wendell Berry, What are People For? 1990)

"We live now in times as precarious as human history has ever recorded, at least mentally, which is the worst kind of precariousness.

Beset by violence, economic instability, and ecological deterioration over which we seem to have no control, we feel helpless. The human race has become afraid of itself. In this quandary, people are trying to take their lives back into their own hands. Instead of mutely bowing before the mass psychology of violence and fear that infects society, individuals are taking steps to at least secure their homes--their food supply, their fuel supply and their shelter."

"All Flesh is Grass"
