I witnessed a lifestyle, based on hard work, that makes sense, where one’s purpose is found in the community’s purpose, in serving each other, and in working for the well-being of all. A life where we reap the fruits of our own labor, work done by our own skillful hands, which we are all capable of. A life dedicated to feeding your brothers and sisters, but also feeding the greater community, bringing health and life through care for the soil and people.
