"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed it's the only thing that ever has."---  Margaret Mead

"We're not simple laborers or traditional farmers.  We're refugees of a dying Industrial Age.  We recognize the roots and origins of our modern urban culture, and we are here today to raise the voices of battered agricultural lands, to repair the damage to our soils, our families, our communities, and our culture. As such, we are worthy citizens."   a quote by James Donaldson from Growing Great Garlic by Ron L. Engeland, Chelsea Green Publishing.

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world."---  M. Ghandi.
