Agreed! They’re amazing.. Love them!
Hey, did you know Border Patrol agents are fond of destroying the food and water caches left in the desert crossing so people don’t die of hunger and thirst?
179 people died crossing between Mexico and Arizona last year, where this happened.
Way to contribute to the deaths of innocent people, sworn officers of the American government!

We had an incredible growing season this year. It was our first year and we didn’t know if anything would grow, if anyone would join us, or if the area would just fill with trash and rats. Truly, the opposite occurred. We made friends and built a community around the garden, we talked about food justice, we grew delicious, healthy food, and we ate it together and shared it with others.
A few weekends ago we got together to celebrate our accomplishments. We pulled the last few sweet potatoes, cut some kale, turned the soil and dreamed about next year. We’re not hibernators though. In the winter we’ll kick into high gear, strategizing about how to get healthy food and equality to more people.

A sad truth.

I’m going to miss this show!
So serious I had to dub it using my iPhone. Gave me chills.
LOVE Her! “Don’t you ever not recognize yourself in somebody else”!
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder, You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger, May you never take one single breath for granted, GOD forbid love ever leave you empty handed, I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean, Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens, Promise me that you’ll give faith a fighting chance, And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance. I hope you dance….I hope you dance. I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance, Never settle for the path of least resistance Livin’ might mean takin’ chances but they’re worth takin’, Lovin’ might be a mistake but it’s worth makin’, Don’t let some hell bent heart leave you bitter, When you come close to sellin’ out reconsider, Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance, And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance….. I hope you dance. .” ~ Never settle for the path of least resistance… Love this song..
