Livin' Lard - Good Food and Good Community with Rev. Karen Mann

Rev. Karen Mann is a pastor in the United Church of Christ and worked for a number of years as a hospital chaplain before following her passion for food to the farm. The first stop was as the Market Manager for a network of farms for refugees. Given that she didn't meet any of the job qualifications, she's pretty sure she got the job by describing how much she loves turnips. She has now settled on her own farm in central Virginia, Heart & Bones Hollow, with her partner and two kids. Together they raise goats, chickens, pigs, one dairy cow, and a variety of produce for market.  She is also working to start a new Dinner Church in her rural community and hoping to find ways to bring the farm and the faith community together. 
 
You can follow the farm on Facebook at www.facebook.com/heartandboneshollow or visit their website heartandboneshollow.com. Or you can read some of Karen's reflections on faith and farming at carrotseedfaith.com.

Food and Faith PodcastWith Anna Woofenden and Sam Chamelin www.foodandfaithpodcast.org
Courtney Ellis is a pastor, speaker, and author of Uncluttered: Free Your Space, Free Your Schedule, Free Your Soul, and Almost Holy Mama: Life-Giving Spiritual Practices for Weary Parents. A graduate of Wheaton College and Princeton Theological Seminary, she lives in southern California with her husband, Daryl, and their three children.
Her bylines include Christianity Today, MOPS International, Fathom Mag, The Mighty, and (in)courage. She is a regular contributor to The Glorious Table and has been featured on Two Peas in a Podcast and The Ride Home with John and Kathy.
A regular speaker for MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers), leadership retreats, college and teen events, Courtney is an engaging, hilarious, winsome, and thoughtful presence on the stage.
Courtney grew up in northern Wisconsin where she and her two younger sisters figure skated in sequined leotards until they discovered ice hockey. She reads too much, can’t make herself enjoy yoga, and hits the trails near her home when life gets too life-y.
The proud owner of a $.29 goldfish she’s kept alive for over a year (this is a big accomplishment for someone who once killed a cactus by under-watering), she’s never met a sour gummy treat she doesn’t like.
