Quick News:     " Dusty Road was the first song written for this project almost 15 years ago. I knew then that this was something that I really had to do. It has become very important for me as a songwriter. I really want to spread the word about who the people are that bring food to the table of all Canadians and around the world. It's been a long time coming but I'm proud of the work!"

Quick News:    "Could You Leave all This Behind was the last song written. I thought I was done until this song came along. I just had to add it to the CD. I hope listeners will visualize the lyrics."
