Socially Progressive Farmpunks ?

There seems to be a missing link in Kansas agriculture research these days:  Workers who know farm equipment who are also on board with sustainable perennial polycultures AND are socially progressive.  It doesn't take alot to appear socially progressive in Kansas.  This is the state that keeps electing republicans.  If farmpunks would move here, one day we would see a change in that tide.  For now, it would be nice to see some young, open-minded field hands around the old research facility.  There are places to live which are owned by TLI, and of course the scientists are progressive in most if  not all areas of interaction.  I like my seasonal work at The Land, and I would sure like to do more with the right crew.  I like the intelligence and forward-thinking writing I have found on the farmpunk blog.  The people behind the words could be, or probably know someone who would be an excellent candidate for research facility staff.  I am a man of many talents, however I am not a scientist.  Rather I am one who knows the founder pretty well and we share a concern for this issue.  Resilience depends on cooperation at ALL levels of understanding, not just how to drive a tractor...  Any takers?
