The wheat is planted.

I can breath a sigh of relief now that the seeds are in the ground. It was a bit late this year, so the plants and harvest might be a little smaller, but that is okay because it is not about feeding our bellies, it is about feeding our souls. No matter who you are or where you come from, you have to eat, therefore we are all connected, we are all human. It is the idea and the thought that counts and as long as we remember why we are planting the seeds and eating together we have succeeded.

And if, because of this project, one more person in this world sees our shared humanity, I have succeeded.
