4/12 Tree Digging Work Brigade at Sharon Food Justice Garden
We hope you can join us! Vermont’s ability to feed itself relies on thriving community scale farms working together towards food sovereignty and community resilience. We hope Join us Saturday, April 12 from 10-3pm at the Sharon Food Justice Garden for a tree digging work brigade! The Sharon Food Justice Garden was established as a collaborative project between the Regeneration Corps, the Sharon Academy and the Sharon Food Pantry to increase local food security while creating a teaching garden for local youth and community members.
Work brigades are a popular education tool used around the world to strengthen communities and build trust and solidarity through collective labor, connection, mutual aid, and knowledge sharing. Agroecological education will be provided by special guest Buzz Ferver, founder/owner of Perfect Circle Farm in Berlin VT and a long time naturalist who has been growing and propagating trees for over 45 years. Come learn about the Vermont People’s Agroecology School, the Sharon Food Justice Garden, and agroecology as a social, political, and ecological movement building tools to grow community resilience and food sovereignty.
