bothered earth

a hub for neighborly ventures into making things
right in this world

There’s a bigger picture to be seen; it’s time we fill those gaps in our conversations with stories of resilience and camaraderie.

Our bothered earth is one that’s been tilted off balance by a misuse of its resources and mistreatment of its inhabitants, but also stirred to set things right.
