“It’s about lifting each other up and speaking life over each other,” she added.

I am from a farming community in Northeast Louisiana.
A little town of 200 people, Wilson shared.
I’m a fifth generation farmer’s daughter and I would consider myself a farmer too.
And everyone I surround myself with, I think they’re farmers too.
But they’re story farmers, Wilson continued.
It’s about getting up every single day and planting those seeds and watering em and watching ‘em grow.
And sometimes when you find the right farming community you might have the harvest of the lifetime.
And I truly believe that and I think exactly what this is tonight.
