Most the people that I know in the agriculture community don't believe these people should automatically be given citizenship. They need to earn it like everyone else does.

We are the canary in the mineshaft. What we have to look at is our whole agriculture community. You know, rural life and everything like that. What is it worth?

To celebrate citizenship is one way for society to show that it is something valuable which strengthens the community.

As we search for a less extractive and polluting economic order, so that we may fit agriculture into the economy of a sustainable culture, community becomes the locus and metaphor for both agriculture and culture.

Commercial agriculture can survive within pluralistic American society, as we know it - if the farm is rebuilt on some of the values with which it is popularly associated: conservation, independence, self-reliance, family, and community. To sustain itself, commercial agriculture will have to reorganize its social and economic structure as well as its technological base and production methods in a way that reinforces these values.

The whole point of it is to bring community back to agriculture. I don't know of any other wine-making community or area that produces such a wine.
