There we were in The Kitchen Sisters office, working on our new podcast, when out of the blue, an anonymous donor—knowing that funding for public media and the arts has been stripped by the government—offered a $20K donation to our nonprofit if we can raise $20K to match it in the next 5 days!

Community as ethics, as assistance, as ressource, and the sharing of those things.

Loved this episode.
Throughout the islands of Scotland, you'll find eggs, fresh baked bread, homemade jam, cabbage, scones, cakes, knitted hats, you name it. If someone can make it, bake it, grow it, sew it, it may turn up for sale in an Honesty Box.

As someone who was raised in a community with honesty boxes (and still uses them!) this piece by @kitchensisters.bsky.social speaks to me on so many levels.

It’s not a rural thing: it’s about community, and what is valued by them.
