The collection of essays and art is a multi-year exploration of the role of agriculture and education in culture. The New Perennials Project is making the book available at no cost to the public. 

“Our hope is that students and teachers in both high schools and universities will find the essays challenging and useful in their work.  Beyond the classroom, we believe readers who are concerned with the state of the world will find the anthology compelling,” said Bill Vitek, the volume’s editor and Clarkson Professor Emeritus.

 In addition to edited collections, New Perennials Publishing has plans to publish sole-authored books and shorter pamphlets, providing a range of writing—from the scholarly to the popular, research and polemics—to readers.Vitek directs the New Perennials Project and is a Scholar in Residence at Middlebury College. Vitek taught philosophy for 32 years at Clarkson University.
