Author & Vashon resident Don Stuart believes two dangerous trends—the loss of farms and damage to ecosystems—are connected, and that a major cause is the political deadlock between farmers and environmental activists. He offers a radical proposal: collaboration. To promote empathy and point out the costs of continued political impasse, he presents opposing perspectives.  The location is Matsuda Farm. You can reach the Farm via the driveway just north of K2. Park on Vashon Highway (follow the signs).
