Seeding Hope

Is it possible that the most viable and sustainable approaches to farming, to business, to life can be found in the patterns of a plant’s lifecycle?

In Seeding Hope, Jack Algiere, Chief Agroecology Officer (CAO) at Stone Barns, shares the wisdom he’s gained in a lifetime of farming and expanding the agricultural practices of one of the leading sustainable-minded farms and agricultural centers in the country. 

This book is directed not just to farmers, but also towards those who desire a more connected and meaningful life—in their home life and in their business careers. By following and examining the stages of a plant’s development, readers gain a greater understanding of how we can engage with nature, how reflecting nature’s patterns benefits our societal health and how this biological progression is key to sustainability in our land, our lives and our ventures.
