To Colleen and all of those working to feed the rest of us.....

Thank you. I know that the life you have chosen is difficult, uncertain, and unfairly compensated. I hope it feels like a "calling" because I believe it is. You are sacrificing for the good of the world, and I just want you to know that I appreciate your sacrifice. More importantly, God knows your sacrifice, and your reward in heaven will be far better than granite countertops!

 

Peace be with you,

You are so right, Cyndi. Since I am no longer able to fit myself into the category of one who is working to feed "the rest of you", I will gratefully stand in the ranks of those offering thanks. I know how hard and often thankless the job can be. We'd all suffer without your sacrifices and passions.

 

Peace!

I too am thankful, so many of us have long lost this skill to grow our own food. Thank you for the milk I drink, the wonderful ripe tomatoes, the crispy greens, and sweet peppers. All those foods, animal, vegetable, and mineral that give us life.

How kind of you to share such encouragement. Thank you! I do believe farming/ranching is a calling; some people have it in their blood. That's certainly the case for Hans. It is a good way of life, and I appreciate the opportunity to be part of it.

 

And peace be with you.

Thank to all of you that help to put food on the table. I can't get my garden to grow I don't know how you all manage to feed nation.

[Caroline]

From someone who cannot even figure out how to grow tomatoes, thank you.

[HRAAB]

I'll join in and give you a big Thanks. I'm still of the belief that farmers are the backbone of this country. We've always said if we could visit Fantasy Island our dream would be farming. Somehow my dh ended up a technical writer. :confused:

for their service, dedication and honor I'm very appreciative!

 

Especially, right now, all the firefighters who are working so hard to save our state from ravaging fires.
