This week we are glad to share with you a great conversation we had with Neddy Astudillo.

Neddy Astudillo is a pastor, farmer, and scholar who we often invoke on Sister Grove Farm. Born in Venezuela and now a Presbyterian Pastor in Florida, her wisdom as a theologian and organizer has impacted people around the world. We were grateful to talk with her a couple of weeks ago. She and her husband Tom co-founded the Angelic Organics Learning Center in northern IL, and she continues her work to connect people of faith to the earth through her work as an organizer and teacher through GreenFaith, an international and interfaith religious environmental organization.
