We are excited to renew our efforts to share information with you about regenerative agriculture from here and around the world!
As a resurgence of these efforts, we’re sharing a link to and amazing essay in Emergence Magazine called Corn Tastes Better on the Honor System written by Robin Wall Kimmerer. Kimmerer is a writer, scientist, and enrolled member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation as well as the author of Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teaching of Plants. For those of you that prefer an audio version, there is the ability to listen to the essay read by the author.
We hope you enjoy!
“I hold in my hand the multicolored fruit of collective genius, an agreement between sun, soil, water, plant, and farmer. They have entered into the covenant of reciprocity: if the maize will take care of the people, the people will care for the maize.”—Robin Wall Kimmerer
