This week online, we’re sharing a letter from Julia Elliott that was written as a tribute for a farewell celebration at Bard. As many of you know, Bard is ending our institutional support, and we are embarking on a new, independent chapter in challenging times.

On every Earth Day, we think of Conjunctions:73, Earth Elegies. This year, we’ve decided to share the piece that opens the issue, which remembers Brazil nut foragers and eco-martyrs Maria do Espírito Santo da Silva and Zé Cláudio Ribeiro da Silva.

"He knows where the pasture cools, where the wild fires. He knows where the weather’s happening.

He has ten strong cows, a dog.

The cows he knows by name, the trees he knows by name.

The hill—for he stands on a hill—is shrubbed with conifers."

Everyone who generously donated, in spite of the uncertainty of our times. We appreciate you dreaming big, valuing the work we do, and forgiving our awkwardness, as we are much more comfortable discussing literature than asking for money!

Everyone who attended—contributors, editors, readers, neighbors, friends—it was so great to see you and even meet some of you in person for the first time!
