Appreciating what life has to offer....
I never thought that I would be one of those people that would need and appreciate the week-end so much. Now in my life with a young child, week-ends allow time for my family. Growing up on our family farm week-ends typically meant helping out alongside my parents and siblings. Now I understand that it was beyond work and that this upbringing gave me the appreciation of seeing something that was bigger than me; giving me the gift of understanding how and why things grow, the value of hard work and belonging to the larger systems of life. This is something that I hope that I will be able to give to my son Kai through my involvement with Vertical Harvest. I wanted to share this picture of my little guy Kai sitting on the porch while visiting my father who still lives on his farm in Colorado...enjoying a nice sunrise.
I want to thank everyone for their support, I truly believe that Vertical Harvest will bring so many people a greater awareness to life in a different way. If you could take a minute to share our project with others as we go into the final 7 days of our campaign we would appreciate your continued support.
