Description

In this reflective episode with, Patrick Kelly he shares how the Water for All Hike with BLUE Missions and Continental Fresh reshaped his perspective on something most of us never think twice about: water. After walking the same paths families in the Dominican Republic travel daily to access clean water, Patrick describes the weight of their stories, the resilience of the communities he met, and the realization that water isn’t a convenience — it’s life, opportunity, and the foundation for a thriving future.

Patrick then connects this experience back to the produce industry, reminding his listeners that water is the starting point of everything we grow, ship, and serve. Clean water doesn’t just hydrate people — it activates communities, powering local agriculture, entrepreneurship, and economic stability. This episode is both a thank-you and a call to action for industry leaders to step up, get involved, and recognize the shared responsibility we have to support the communities that make our work possible.
