The green
has gotten greener
and the days are long
But Winter
has not
left us.
Through these leaves
the prayer of the fallen seeds
are carried,
From sunshine
into sugar
and into fruit.
May our presence be
a light
in this world
And the dream
of our ancestors
come true.
My name is Douglass DeCandia, or "digs." I am part of a collective of individuals working to make space for people to connect deeply with each other, with humanity, and with the land. As a farmer I am committed to soil, to growing and sharing food and medicine, and to the healing of both people and the Earth.
Our Center in Libertyville, IL, is a workspace for Chicago-based staff, a retreat center for the Center's gatherings of thought-leaders, a laboratory in which to practice land-relationship ideas shared by Center contributors, and (one day soon) a welcoming space for periodic public events.
