A newsletter by the Bluesky & Threads community expounding upon engaging conversations around agriculture, farming, rewilding, and sustainability that's just getting started. Things will be up and running here shortly, but you can subscribe in the meantime if you'd like to stay up to date and receive emails when new content is published!


Planting Seeds of Changed

In a world where connection to the land is both a lifeline and a lost art, Gather at the Grove aims to bring people together to explore innovative, actionable ideas in agriculture, rewilding, and sustainability. Inspired by vibrant conversations on platforms like Bluesky and Threads, this newsletter seeks to amplify voices, share wisdom, and provide practical solutions for some of the biggest challenges we face today.

Whether you’re a seasoned farmer, an aspiring homesteader, or someone curious about the intersection of food, land, and community, Gather at the Grove is a space where all are welcome. Together, we’ll dig into what it means to grow, thrive, and build resilient systems for the future.

Why Gather at the Grove?

The grove has long been a symbol of shelter, collaboration, and life. Much like a grove of trees that shares resources through a network of roots, this newsletter is about creating connections—between individuals, ideas, and communities. It’s a place where wisdom is shared, solutions are nurtured, and growth is a collective effort.

What You Can Expect

At Gather at the Grove, our content is designed to inspire, educate, and empower. Here’s what you’ll find:

1. Practical Insights for Farmers and Growers

From soil testing to crop rotation, we’ll dive into the nitty-gritty of sustainable farming practices. Expect actionable guides, real-world case studies, and insights from experienced growers.

2. Spotlight on Rewilding

Rewilding isn’t just about restoring ecosystems; it’s about rethinking our relationship with nature. We’ll explore success stories, rewilding techniques, and ways you can contribute to ecological resilience.

3. Tackling Food Insecurity

Food deserts, equitable access to fresh produce, and local food systems are at the heart of our mission. We’ll highlight creative ways to address these challenges and build stronger food networks.

4. Amplifying Marginalized Voices

Agriculture has a diversity problem. We’re committed to uplifting the stories, struggles, and successes of Indigenous, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ farmers, ensuring that their voices lead the way in shaping the future of farming.

5. Sustainability Solutions

From permaculture to renewable energy projects like REAP solar grants, we’ll break down innovative strategies to make farming and homesteading more sustainable and accessible.

6. Community Building

You’re not alone in your journey. We’ll share tips for building local networks, engaging with extension offices, and collaborating with fellow growers and activists.
