The
Real
Dirt
on
Farmer
John
tells the story
of a family farm which went under in the '80s but came back from the brink of oblivion reconfigured as Angelic Organics CSA. They take the community part of that seriously, complete with a learning center which hosts and educates all kinds of people. Because Sarah donated some flour, we were invited to visit along with a large group of political refugees from Iraq, Bhutan, Burundi, Pakistan, and Sudan who were there under the auspices of the Kovler Center and International FACES. Most had emigrated from farming villages and for many this was their first trip out of the city since arriving in Chicago. >> |
