3) Harvest for Life - Philosophical Proposal
Now that fall is here, it’s time to collect the long awaited harvest. Or, another way to look at it is that it’s time to ‘reap what you’ve sewn’.
Let us help you plan your own ‘personal harvest’ (below) to ensure your ‘yield’ is as you’d like, with our philosophical proposal: ‘Harvest for Life’:
- Harvest for Sustenance
- Harvest for Self & Serenity
- Harvest for Outcome
- Harvest for Equity
- CRUSISIS Everyday Heroes™ (Near & Far)

3) Harvest for Life - Philosophical Proposal
Each season, we pick people or organizations, locally AND from away that we feel are worthy of mention: our CRUSISIS Everyday Heroes™ “Near” and “Far”. We always learn a little something about what they’ve done to earn the honour, and for what cause or catalyst. From this, we’re able to perceive how parts of what they've done can possibly be applied to our lives, in hopes that we too are inspired to achieve great things for ‘People, Planet and Community’.
Meet our CRUSISIS Everyday Heroes™ “Near” (Casey Binkley of the Atlantic Eco-Expo) and “Far” and see why they are deserving of the honour this season!

3) Harvest for Life - Philosophical Proposal
During this time where for many of us, it is one of harvest and thanksgiving, it’s hard not to think about the contrasting poverty and hunger of others.
Another staggering contrast is that rising obesity rates (mentioned in ‘Harvest for Sustenance’ above) are multiplying in a world where hunger recently exceeded the billion-person mark.

3) Harvest for Life - Philosophical Proposal
Harvesting for ‘self’ is the best way to ensure your ‘ground’ is fertile and that you achieve the ‘serenity’ required to allow you to: be open to new challenges, or even to old ones; be ready to accept change or stay the course; be tolerant and patient in the face of adversity; be able to learn from and embrace differing points of view; and be willing to listen to others to properly hear what they are truly saying.

3) Harvest for Life - Philosophical Proposal
Harvesting for ‘sustenance’ is the most basic and tangible way to ‘harvest for life’. And the fall, with its abundant bounties, is a perfect time to talk about doing just that: Why? How? With whom? And who some of the key local players are in making a difference in maintaining our local ‘Food Security’…
