Making Love While Farming: A Field Guide to a Life of Passion and Purpose
A reading, conversation and signing with the authors: Ricky Baruch and Deb Habib, co-founders of Seeds of Solidarity Farm and Education Center in Orange, MA. Making Love While Farming: A Field Guide to a Life of Passion and Purpose has been described in reviews as equal parts memoir, inspiration and handbook. Rooted in the authors’ three decades of experience “in the field” and as educators and community organizers, the book and related presentations affirm the possibility and necessity of lives and livelihoods that respond to environmental and social justice issues with creativity, love, and balance. It published by worker-owned Levellers Press in Amherst MA.
Praise for Making Love While Farming:
…an unforgettable journey that is riveting, funny, and always deeply moving and down to earth.
Mira Bartok, author of the New York Times bestselling memoir, The Memory Palace
...belongs right next to the Nearing's Living the Good Life, with a major difference. Ricky and Deb not only model how they personally live the good life, but also share their great commitment to building healthy communities and directly increasing access to fresh, healthy food. If you want to be inspired, read this book!
Tom Wessels, Terrestrial Ecologist and author of The Myth of Progress and Reading the Forested Landscape
…weaving common sense, humor, and love, this is a truly delicious potpourri of thoughts on sustainable farming, anti-war activism, healthy eating, and committed solidarity for people and the earth.
Sonia Nieto, Professor Emerita, College of Education, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
…a compelling narrative that offers practical, concrete advice about how we can work together to empower others and change how our country thinks about food.
Congressman Jim McGovern
