Why we got into this whole thing…

Email from Dave Washburn – Chief Farming Officer – to the Harvesters.

Might be one of the best articulations of why we are all getting into this thing.

Dear friends…..

There was a beautiful celebration of our national parks on PBS tonight.  The following quotes are from the narration.

“Wildness is an essential part of ourselves that our ordinary lives temp us to forget and by losing touch with that essential part of ourselves  we risk losing our souls.   Going into nature is how we reconnect with the core roots of our own identity , our own spirituality”

I want to thank you all from that wildest place that moves in me and always has.  You all have helped me reconnect with the cultivated and my beloved uncultivated greenfriends.  I will continue to stalk the wild asparagus,  seek the bashful and reclusive  wild ginger and rejoice with the first spring bloodroot.

Your boundless life energy inspires and nourishes me beyond description….

All love

Dave Washburn
