SUMMARY:Tending Good Soil: A Conversation with Jeff Chu and Krista Tippett
DESCRIPTION:In his late thirties\, Jeff Chu left his job as a magazine writer and found himself at Princeton Theological Seminary’s “Farminary”—a twenty-one-acre working farm where students learn to cultivate the earth while examining life’s biggest questions. Now\, he unpacks what he learned about creating “good soil\,” both literally and figuratively\, drawing lessons from the rhythms of growth\, decay\, and regeneration that define life on the land. \nJoin us for this exclusive conversation between Chu and Krista Tippett\, host of On Being. Together\, they’ll discuss the new book and why\, at a time when we seem most drawn to the phones in our hands\, we need to connect to the land. \nTicket Information\nGeneral Admission: $30\nGeneral Admission + copy of Good Soil: $50\nStudent Ticket (Seminary and University): $15\nStudent Ticket + copy of Good Soil: $35 \n>>Purchase Tickets\nBooks will be available for purchase on the day of the event through Labyrinth Books. \n\nJeff Chu is an award-winning journalist and editor-at-large at Travel+Leisure. He also serves as teacher in residence at Crosspointe Church in Cary\, N.C.\, and parish associate for storytelling and witness at the First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley\, Calif. He is the author of Does Jesus Really Love Me? and the co-author\, with the late Rachel Held Evans\, of the New York Times bestseller Wholehearted Faith. Chu is a former Time staff writer and Fast Company editor whose work has also appeared in The New York Times Magazine\, The Wall Street Journal\, and Modern Farmer. In his weekly newsletter\, “Notes of a Make-Believe Farmer\,” Chu writes about spirituality\, gardening\, food\, travel\, and culture. An ordained minister in the Reformed Church in America\, he received his MDiv from Princeton Seminary in 2019 and is now pursuing a PhD in theology from the University of Stellenbosch. He lives with his husband\, Tristan\, in Grand Rapids\, Michigan. \nKrista Tippett is a Peabody Award-winning broadcaster\, a National Humanities Medalist\, and a New York Times bestselling author. After studying theology at Yale Divinity School in the early 1990s\, she saw a black hole where intelligent public conversation about the religious\, spiritual\, and moral aspects of human life might be. She pitched and piloted her idea for several years before launching Speaking of Faith — later On Being — as a weekly national public radio show (initially based at Minnesota Public Radio/American Public Media) in 2003.  In 2011\, she created the Civil Conversations Project\, now an ever-evolving body of shows and public events. In 2013\, Krista and a team of four producers took On Being and the Civil Conversations Project into independent\, non-profit production with a work/studio/event space on Loring Park in Minneapolis — and The On Being Project was born. She has published three books: Becoming Wise: An Inquiry into the Mystery and Art of Living; Einstein’s God\, drawn from her interviews at the intersection of science\, medicine\, and spiritual inquiry; and Speaking of Faith\, a memoir of religion in our time.

SUMMARY:1st Annual Farminary Seed Swap
DESCRIPTION:Have you collected seeds from your garden? Or do you have excess commercial seed from the last several years? Bring them! No seeds? Come anyway! All are welcome to take what they need at the 1st Annual Farminary Seed Swap. \nThe Seed Swap aims to gather people and seeds for nourishing community resilience and neighborly connection. Join other plant enthusiasts – including experienced seed savers and new gardeners – to cultivate a network of people interested in local seed keeping and sharing. With seeds (and most other things)\, we have learned patterns of scarcity and market transactions. Through the Seed Swap\, we’ll practice abundance and generosity with seeds and each other. \nDon’t miss this potluck-style sharing of seeds on February 22 from 3-5 pm ET. Please bring your seed labeled and packaged (in bulk is fine). We will have extra envelopes\, pens\, markers\, tape\, and labels. Upon arrival\, you will be invited to distribute your seed onto tables labeled by plant type. After a welcome and introductions\, the swap will begin! \nWe are grateful to co-sponsor this event with The Seed Farm at Princeton. \nMark your calendar! \nIf you have questions\, please email the Farminary at the.farminary@ptsem.edu
