Since I’m on the cusp of being labeled a “Senior Citizen”, I’ve been asked to talk about my experiences, contexts and practical things from the grass whisperer’s lens. Most of the learning however, comes from visiting and sharing with other folks about their experiences and contexts AND building relationships. I hope to inflict things to think about to optimize happiness and inspire others to ask the most important question, WHY? Hope to meet you on the road and get your take on life on and off the farm.
