"This food is offered as a gift to anyone who is hungry for any reason."
Sand River Community Farm is an experiment in neighborly farming and feeding. All food and events are offered as a gift, with no barrier to access.
Events:
Sundays 4/20, 4/27, 5/4 from 2-5pm: Regular Farm Frolic
5pm Supper
Beginning May 10th:
Saturday at 1pm: Community Lunch at the Keeseville Community Garden, across the street from the library. Everyone is invited and the food is served without charge. After lunch, we will tend to the garden beds: planting, weeding, harvesting, and sharing the produce.
Sunday at 2:45pm: Shuttle from the Community Garden to the Farm: to ensure that car ownership is not a barrier to attendance at Farm events.
Sunday at 3:00pm: Farm Frolic! These joyful work days allow us to continue having food to share. The farm has no paid staff; only neighborly hands. Join us in a learning or teaching/leading capacity. Projects for all abilities, indoors and out.
Sunday at 5:30pm: Sunday Supper in the Barn. A main dish of Farm Food will be served, as well as any side dishes or desserts you are inspired to bring. We will sing a song and share the Farm blessing before the meal, and share the work of cleanup, dishes, and breakdown. Each week will learn how to better share the labor of maintaining such a neighborly space, where no one is turned away due to lack of money or physical ability.
Vision and Mission:
At Sand River Community Farm, we long to recover our deeply human capacity for mutually sustaining relationships, both human to human, and human to all that is not human. We grow and glean food which is offered as a gift to anyone who is hungry for any reason. Through practices of radical hospitality and intergenerational table fellowship, the Farm sparks a neighborly conversation about how we might feed one another without buying and selling food.
Our efforts to build community across social barriers will be sustained, or not, by neighborly hands and dollars.
