What self-care and well-being mean to me as a farmer: “Self-care means taking care of my mind and body so that I am able to put in the physical and mental labor required to grow food for my neighbors, particularly my elders.”


How I might use this $100 self-care award: “I would use the $100 to get a manicure and hand massage. Working in the fall and winter is very hard on my hands.”


Most important self-care needs that contribute to my well-being as a farmer: "The ability to work ONLY on producing food and not also another job to make ends meet.”
