I Love Astertide

Leah Bayans:

When I first sat with Wendell [Berry] to talk about educating farmers as farmers, he started by turning to the idea of love—in the fullness of the term, not sentimentalized but fully rounded, with the joyful and the difficult joined through membership in a place and with its people.

He then asked a question that I try to answer every day: what works does this love propose?

Start with love, then see what works that love proposes. (H/T: @ayjay)

The little ones that don’t look quite red are ‘Sungolds,’ which aren’t supposed to be red, but yellow. (Just sayin’.)

I started making ths BLT a bit less than six months ago. (At least the “T”.)
