Last night I spoke at a University in Texas. The president and his assistant put real heart into the evening, and I’m grateful. Our partnership with the university has grown over time—they’re a pickup site for our CSA, and they’ve screened Kiss the Ground and Common Ground, which my brother produced. It felt like community working the way it should: students, faculty, and neighbors gathering around food, land, and honest conversation.
