What a farm season. What a year.  What a time in this world.  I am feeling ALL the feels of the seasonal transition, plus the utter mayhem in the world and the farm season winding down. I am doing my best to find my feet on this earth, which always calms me down.

As part of this, one-foot-in-front-of the other mental health plan, we have started TEAM JUST ROOTS for The March For the Food Bank 15. This March is a two-day walk to raise money for the Food Bank of Western MA and two days of raising awareness about food insecurity in our region and beyond.

My life's work has been about growing food, feeding people and hopefully getting at - and dismantling - the systems that keep so many of us from accessing the food we need to thrive and survive. It's my honor to get to spend a day supporting another organization in the work that they do towards alleviating food insecurity.

I'll be marching on DAY TWO of The March for the Food Bank 15--from Northampton to Greenfield! 20 + miles!  Consider joining in for some or all of the walk! Or, support this work with me by donating now. Or-- pass this link along, or have a conversation about what your vision of everyone having food access truly looks like.

Thanks for supporting my work today and all the days before this. I would not be the farmer I am without all of you.

With love and care,

Meryl
