Let’s gather and celebrate the small joys of the growing season and building connections through food.
For more than 15 years, Cultivating Community has support immigrant families who farm through our Community Farms Program (formerly NASAP), by providing land access, culturally familiar seedlings, SNAP/WIC match, and technical support and training. Hundreds of farmers and thousands of neighbors have benefited from this grassroots work. Times are hard, and funding is uncertain, but we have deep roots and out commitment to community farming is stronger than ever. Come what may, this season our two farms will support than 50 immigrant families growing over $500,000 worth of fresh, culturall familiar produce.
Thank you to our long-time partner and supporter, Allagash Brewing Company, for hosting, and to all of the volunteers and local business contributing their time and resources. See you there!
