My guest now is Craig Floyd. Craig has been here on DITD several times before. I always like talking with Craig, because of his incredible knowledge of regenerative and organic growing, his work ethic and empathy for those who have less than the rest of us. Craig is retiring from running the Giving Garden in Stonington CT., which grows tons of wholesome food and gives it away.

In this episode I chatted to Leigh, otherwise known as @beardygardener, who I met earlier this year at Hampton Court Palace, and we even ended up on stage together! This episode started of with Leigh sharing some very personal experiences of how the garden helped him through his younger years which led to the Giving Garden concept, and ended up as a bit of a gardening brainstorm on how we can inspire and make it more accessible for people to get into gardening. If you've got any thoughts you'd like to share from our brainstorm where we got a little too excited near the end, please do get in touch! Hosted on Acast.

THE FOOD OF LIFE / COMIDA DE VIDA FOOD PANTRY Pantry Mission Statement and Philosophy: We provide fresh, nutritious food weekly for our neighbors in need, including vegetables grown in the on-site “Giving Garden”; and we offer information and referrals for a long-term improvement in their lives and health.  It is our core value that all who come to the pantry find a cheerful, encouraging atmosphere where they are treated with respect: we believe having a full stomach and sense of dignity is crucial to an individual's ability to begin making positive changes in their lives. Who we serve: We serve the hungry population in eastern Dutchess County and northwest Litchfield County, especially the towns of Amenia, Wassaic, Millerton, Dover Plains, and Sharon. In some cases, recipients travel even greater distances looking for help that is not available closer to home. Some come from families who have lived in this area for generations; about 40% are new immigrants. Nearly half of those we serve are children for whom lack of nutritious food can have devastating consequences, including stunted growth, learning disabilities, increased health risks, and behavioral issues. Most are members of the “working poor,” for whom one emergency — illness, car trouble, temporary job loss — can swamp the budget and send them into crisis, with not enough money for food. WOULD YOU LIKE MORE INFORMATION?

The Radio Rotary team visited Millbrook Rotary at the Millbrook Café to broadcast a show about the Food of Life/Comida de Vida food pantry run by Amenia's St. Thomas Episcopal Church. Interviewees included AJ Stack, who is not only Rector of the Church but also the current president of Millbrook Rotary; Jim Wright, co-warden and facility manager of the church who was among the founders of Food of Life in 2009; co-warden Samantha Lucas; and newly hired manager of the pantry, Danny Hutnick. Radio Rotary co-host Sarah O'Connell-Claitor, a member of Millbrook Rotary and a parishioner of St. Thomas, was able to add her own observations. The Food of Life pantry started in the church, grew and moved to the parish house, grew more and moved to the parking lot, where today there is a new building that houses the operation. Next door is The Giving Garden, started in 2014, which supplies most of the fresh vegetables dispensed by the pantry, which currently helps feed 300 families each week.

Sacred Stories | The Gift of Time in the Giving Garden “There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work. Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.” - 1 Corinthians 12:4-7 The challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic have required us to draw on our mission, vision and values as daily sources of comfort. Recently, we had the opportunity to serve a patient who had an independent spirit and loved the outdoors. In fact, he loved to spend countless hours in forested mountains. Although he was not a religious person, he had consistently found peace within nature. Unfortunately, he had not seen the outdoors for weeks; because our hospital had an increased need for negative pressure rooms during the pandemic, his ICU room did not have a window. In conversation with his family and treatment team, the patient decided to focus on comfort care. While he was at peace with his decision, our staff felt called to care for his spirit as well as his body. Recognizing the importance of nature as an expression of his spirituality, we collaborated to give him some time outdoors in the hospital's Giving Garden. Although the logistics were challenging, we were determined. The patient's nurse, along with the chaplain and palliative care coordinator, focused on clinical support. The security team ensured the path to the garden was easily accessible and added a special touch: a patio umbrella to offer shade. The maintenance team provided support to ensure a gentle transition outside. Infection prevention staff and the transport team shared items that made the time outside more comfortable. The patient and his family came with open hearts filled with gratitude for time together in the outdoors, even as they grieved their anticipated loss. Together, we created a sacred space for them to spend precious time together. It was sunny and hot, providing warmth for our patient. A gentle breeze allowed the birch trees to show off their glistening leaves in shades of green. There was an essence of tranquility and comfort. The beauty that surrounded us modeled the verse, “Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.” For just a few moments, time stood still and all was well. Through this encounter we reexperienced our call to serve, which gives us the strength and compassion to care for each patient in body, mind, and spirit. It re-energized our sense of purpose at a time when we often felt overwhelmed and helpless to ease pain and suffering. The timing of the garden visit was profound, as our patient died peacefully later that day. His family expressed deep appreciation for the care they received. They were especially grateful for the gift of time in the garden, surrounded by nature's beauty. Together we work hard to live our mission every day. We strive to show compassion, respect for the dignity of each person, and the power of collaboration. On that particular summer day, it was inspirational to work together to bring joy to our patient and his family. May God continue to work through us in this special ministry of healing that has been entrusted to all of us.

In this episode of Cloud 9 Online's MediMindful Moment Podcast, co-hosts Judith Dreyer, Jeff Nelder, and Henry Edinger interview Craig Floyd, Farm Manager of the Giving Garden at Coogan Farm, part of the Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center. Tenth-generation farmer Craig Floyd, talks about connecting people to nature through working in the soil and utilizing regenerative gardening practices. Key Quotes: ● “This is not your normal garden. This is a regenerative no-till, no-spray garden, and the food is 80% better than anything you've ever put your mouth on nutritionally. So it's really good, especially for those people that are in need.” - Craig Floyd ● “To be out there in that field with people, on a hot and sweaty day, watching the dragonflies, harvesting lettuce, and taking it to the food bank and seeing the smiles on everybody's faces. Knowing that somebody was going to get some good lettuce today.” - Craig Floyd ● “You become one with Mother Nature. People don't understand the strength of the garden, and what the garden can do for us. Whether you're just a 73-year-old, 10th generation farmer, or whether you're a young teenager, with special needs, unable to verbally communicate, what a garden does for us to be in the garden, and to be growing and knowing that we're going to give somebody a meal.” - Craig Floyd ● “You need to get outside and volunteer in a garden or just put some parsley in the ground or something. Do something with the soil. You know, we are 90% better bacterial cells, what do you think the soil is? I mean, we are the soil. It just does so much good for us. You've got to get out in nature, people. Take your shoes off. Just enjoy it.” - Craig Floyd Resources Mentioned: ● Judith Dreyer ● Jeff Nelder LinkedIn ● Henry Edinger LinkedIn ● Cloud9 Online ● MediMind App ● Craig Floyd Facebook ● Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center ● Coogan Farm ● TED Talk: Feeding & Healing The Community Through A Regenerative Giving Garden Join us for an engaging conversation experience.
