      <image:caption>Danie's Crossing of the Eramosa River Photo by Brett Forsyth Photography When we were across. I sat and fed my hen beet greens for her good behavior, and contemplated if I would have the will to continue farming if this was my daily/weekly reality. I would in reality need far more than one basket, so what does one do? Build a raft? Make several crossings a day? It has been a hard enough farming season in Ontario this year with the drought.  Additionally, facing this crossing might have me thinking strongly about other employment. Not crossing would mean more than no income; it would also mean no chance to buy what foods I couldn’t provide for my family from the farm. As a woman, and mother, like the majority of us small farmers are across the globe, I would likely have my young children in tow making this a distressing trip each time. If you are able, please join us and BE A BRIDGE. Providing farmers with safe and convenient market access not only supports local and sustainable food sources, it ensures the continued livelihood of rural communities and villages. I believe that building bridges is an imperative part of making this happen.  Danie McAren, Market Gardener</image:caption>

      <image:title>Stories - Spotlight: The Man Behind the Mission – Harmon Parker, Founder of Bridging the Gap Africa - The Deal…</image:title>
      <image:caption>It all kicked off in 1996, but before Harmon became the bridge guy, he had another skill under his belt—bricklaying. How did that happen, you ask? Well, it’s classic Harmon. He struck a deal with his friend, a mason: “Teach me how to lay bricks, and I’ll teach you how to play the guitar!” That’s right—Harmon’s not just a bridge builder; he’s got a serious passion for music. When he’s not saving lives with footbridges, you’ll find him strumming his guitar.</image:caption>
