The 400th recipient is Anthony Villa of Villa Acres in Sparta, TN. Anthony writes:
What self-care and well-being mean to me as a farmer: “Moving and taking action in rhythm with the weather such as planting right before a rain, taking the hottest part of the day off, and trying to find rest when it is available, and sustainability in the pace of physical labor needed to keep everything going. ”
How I might use this $100 self-care award: “Yoga class or massage session after a heavy harvest.”
Most important self-care needs that contribute to my well-being as a farmer: "Time and space to rest and recover, and the mental understanding that I can't do it all and what I am able to do is good enough and wonderful. There is always more to do but understanding personal limits to stay in good health is important.”
