I’d love to share the following message from Dr. Zach Bush to honor the soil and the farmer this Thanksgiving. This helps me honor my ancestors who all farmed in one way or another (some on only a few acres and my dad’s family who farmed 200 acres in the hills of West ‘By God’ Virginia)! If you feel inclined, please click the link at the end of the message to give to Farmer’s Footprint.
If we dare to listen, the soil whispers truths as old as time: that life is a cycle, that healing is possible, and that our future depends on the choices we
make today.When I left the clinical world and stepped onto the farm, I began to see health in its truest form. It was not something confined to hospital walls or held in a prescription bottle. It was alive—in the soil, in the roots of plants, in the hands of farmers—and it was calling to be remembered.
What I discovered was both humbling and galvanizing: the health of our soil and the health of our bodies are one.
And yet, in the span of three generations, we’ve allowed this sacred relationship to erode. Industrial agriculture has depleted not only the nutrients in our soil but the vitality of entire communities. The result? Chronic disease is rising. Biodiversity is vanishing. Farmers—the stewards of our most vital resources—are struggling to survive.
But this is not where the story ends.
Nature is resilient. And so are we.
This Giving Tuesday, I invite you to join an act of remembering—of reconnecting to the soil, to the cycles of life, and to the shared stewardship that binds us to one another and the earth.
At Farmer’s Footprint, we are working to restore what has been lost: the connection between soil health, human health, and community resilience. We are witnessing extraordinary transformations:
- Farmers rediscovering the abundance of regenerative systems.
- Communities reconnecting through shared meals made from local, nutrient-rich food.
- Soil, once barren, now teeming with life and ready to nourish the next generation.
This work is not easy. It requires vision, resources, and unwavering commitment. But the impact is profound.
This Giving Tuesday, I invite you to join an act of remembering—a reconnection to the soil, to the cycles of life, and to the shared stewardship that binds us. When you give to Farmer’s Footprint, you are joining a global community where regeneration is not just possible—it’s already happening, healing both the land and
the soul of humanity.To give, follow this long link: https://give.farmersfootprint.us/campaign/giving-tuesday-2024/c641669?utm_source=Klaviyo&utm_medium=campaign&_kx=VbeGlkvopSm2vwbOHtAnFRoe8TO-DQwuN2sAZuCw3hQ.XMjWvz
