🌱 We’ve Outgrown Our Space and the Grants We Needed Are Gone 🌱
We want to be transparent with you: several of the grants we applied for this season have been cancelled. Others simply aren’t available this year. These grants would have helped us grow, especially by supporting additional staff to meet the rising demand for what we do.
Meanwhile, demand hasn’t slowed down. We’re booked solid for events through the end of the year, and more people keep reaching out wanting to host gatherings, workshops, and programs on the farm. We’re honored, and we’re also at capacity.
We’ve officially outgrown our current space. Right now, we want to convert our garage, which houses essential farm equipment, into a space for storing nonprofit materials like basket-making and kitchen supplies, educational tools, and more.
While we have long-term plans for a more permanent facility, we need a short-term solution now: we’re raising $25,000 for a dedicated shed and to make minor modifications in the garage for storage. This would allow us to store what we need without compromising our farm infrastructure.
If you believe in this work or have seen its impact, we’d love your help in sharing or supporting this effort. A little bit of support now will go a long way in helping us carry this momentum forward. You can donate via PayPal and we are also accepting cash or check donations.
