Apartment Permie here currently applying to divinity school. I'm hoping to study with Norman Wirzba and Ellen Davis at Duke Divinity School. Both personal friends of Wendell Berry, check out their books:

I'm currently reading the book on the second link. In it, Wirzba explains how neighborliness and the command to love one's neighbor are most recognizably demonstrated through skills like farming, woodworking, machine maintenance, and other skills necessary for agrarian communities. Furthermore, the more we know where our food comes from (ideally by knowing how to produce it ourselves), the more we feel secure and this increases both our capacity and our inclination to hospitality: welcoming in the refugee, caring for the orphan and widow, etc.
I'm happy to see that mainline protestants are seeing this and supporting new kinds of ministry. Check out this New York Times article for three good examples:
