"A year ago, I could only dream of this abused land, that I now have the honor of having stewardship over, would provide back. What I mean to say is take care of the land and it will take care of you. I'm so grateful for all the love and support I've received to make this dream possible..." -- Peter Mustin of Wood Bridge Farm in Chimacum Valley, Washington 
HOPE IS A SEED
Sowing the Seeds of Hope Through the challenges of 2020 and 2021, the intersectional nature of community has been highlighted: how we each have a role to play and some magic to make, to keep us growing, adaptive and resilient. Moments of hardship will always reveal the injustices and the work left to be done. They simultaneously catalyze the very people that can provide the skills and courage necessary to bring about change, into action.  These people are seeds and their work in this world is essential. We recognize the hope they plant, harvest and share. We see how the hero in each of us blooms when resources, community support and access are equally distributed. As we mourn those we’ve lost and reconcile the evolving challenges ahead, we have been tasked to plant our own seeds of hope and to share the bounty at harvest.
