The land calls out to us urgently. Our food and security are on the line. Impending matters of finance, transport, water, oil, climate, and the diet compel us to respond immediately and wholeheartedly. We have commenced a transition the likes of which few are prepared for, but to which we all can respond with intelligence. Now is the time to establish a renewed agrarian foundation rooted in experience, adapted to the specific needs of our land, oriented to the future, and capable of integrating high-tech, sustainable practices. This is the profound vision articulated in The Call of the Land.
