Do You Care About the Future of Your Rural Community?
Do You Want to be Heard?
Do you favor a farm and food system that relies on small and medium-sized operations that contribute to local economies while building healthy soil? Are you concerned about the corporate takeover of the farm and food system in your community? Do you want to speak up about the impacts it’s having and possible alternatives? Then we want to hear from you.
Speaking for the Land & People 
LSP is launching a special initiative to collect the stories of rural residents who question the “get big or get out” narrative and the power and bullying tactics wielded by Corporate America. For the next 12 months, the LSP Powerline Story Center is seeking firsthand audio reports and stories from rural residents across the Midwest who question the power of Big Ag and Corporate America, are seeking ways to fight back, and want to speak up for a type of farm and food system that is good for the land, the people, and our communities.
How We Will Use Your Story
First of all, the Land Stewardship Project wants to simply listen and hear from you about what’s happening in your community. After you record your story, one of our staff members may reach out to you. If there is information and resources we have to share or if there are other LSP members who are also concerned about the issues you mention, we will offer to let you know. We will make sure you are made aware of how your story connects with the stories of others. We want you to know that you are not alone and that there are ways to have a positive impact in your community.
Interested? Let’s get started by recording your audio story. Simply click on the microphone icon above or on the Record Your Story Here button below. If you prefer to write your story or record a video, simply e-mail Brian DeVore. If you have any questions, contact LSP organizer Matthew Sheets via e-mail or at 612-767-9709.
Remember: your voice and your story are powerful.
