When Faith Meets Famine: A Garden Director's Crisis
Standing alone in Anathoth Community Garden on the first Sunday of Advent, Fred Bahnson confronted an uncomfortable truth: he had poured himself so completely into five acres of vegetables that nothing remained for his family. The garden had become an extension of his body, yet his soul was withering. This moment of spiritual reckoning launched him on a pilgrimage across America to discover how faith communities were reconnecting spirituality and agriculture. What he found wasn't just about growing food-it was about cultivating the human spirit through soil. The timing of his journey proved significant. Americans were increasingly questioning industrial food systems, hungry for more meaningful connections to what they eat. But Bahnson's quest ran deeper than the farm-to-table movement. He sought to understand how working the earth could become a spiritual practice, how dirt under fingernails might lead to God.
