Out of Office

When I work at the orchard, I'm free of titles and company language. There is no such thing as salary or tax or pension. Rather, there is an exchange that takes place, and the currency we trade is care, compassion, conversation, presence, wisdom, knowledge, relationship. When I work at the orchard, I know I've worked because I leave covered in sweat and dirt, and I can count the boxes of apples I've picked. And I picked them well. You can't really fail at picking apples and pulling weeds. Anyone can be successful here.
