Please join us for the CSA’s annual Blessing of the Land. This family-friendly activity will be held on Saturday, June 6 from 12:00-4:00 at the John and Brenda Bryant’s JBCubed Farm, 5240 NC 39 Hwy North, Henderson, NC 27537 (brick house with an American flag waving on the mailbox).
This is a great opportunity to get to know our network farmers and learn about the history and experiences of farmers of color in our region as we enjoy food and fellowship together. You do not need to be a CSA member to attend – all are welcome. RSVPs are helpful but not required. Please contact ">Donna Doran or ">Paige Clark with questions or to RSVP. We’ll work on ride shares to the farm.
Activities: We’ll enjoy a pot luck meal (please bring a dish to share); You are welcome to bring a cup of soil from your garden; those who wish to can do some work in Brenda’s budding Meditation Garden (please bring hats and gloves if you plan to do this); and you can just relax!
By way of background—UUFR is a charter member of the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program that was established by RAFI (Rural Advancement Foundation International) in 2020 to support farmers of color and women farmers in the region.
Hope to see you there as we celebrate with the farmers who grow our food.
