From Desert to Fertile Ground: A Family's Food Revolution
Imagine packing up your family, leaving the Arizona desert, and moving to rural Appalachia with a radical goal: to spend an entire year eating only what you can grow yourself or source locally. This is precisely what Barbara Kingsolver and her family did, swimming against the cultural tide in a nation where most people have lost all connection to their food sources. Their journey began with a stark realization: their desert life depended on "borrowed water," creating an impossible moral dilemma between "robbing Mexico's water or guzzling Saudi Arabia's gas." The contrast between their old and new homes crystallized in two encounters: an Arizona cashier scowling at approaching rain clouds that might interfere with car washing, versus a Virginia waitress welcoming rain with a simple "Don't we need it!" This agricultural mindset - understanding that rain means life, not inconvenience - confirmed they had found their place. Their mission wasn't about primitive living but reclaiming essential knowledge that most humans throughout history considered necessary for survival - knowledge that has "vanished from our culture" because "we've convinced ourselves it wasn't important."
