What was Bailey's concept of the 'Holy Earth'?
The 'Holy Earth' represents my profound conviction that the land itself, the soil, the plants, the animals, and the rural landscape, possesses an inherent sacredness and dignity. It is not merely a resource to be exploited, but a living entity demanding reverence and responsible care. This concept calls for a spiritual and ethical connection to agriculture and nature, recognizing the profound interdependence between humanity and the earth. It is about finding meaning and fulfillment in our work with the soil.
