crop mob attacks/farm burger rescues
two amazing things happened today at the backyard moon. first, we were attacked by a mob of city dwelling, country itching "landless, wannabe farmers". crop mob atlanta, an all volunteer production, travels to local sustainable farms and lends a hand in whatever ways are needed. as they explain on their website, farmers are not only an aging population, but a dissapearing one. in the age of gps plantings and oil powered harvesters, less people are needed. but in our world, where hand meets seed and soil, community is paramount. and that is exactly what they provided us with today.
