Organic farming isn’t just about what we grow—it's about how we grow it, who we grow it for, and how we give back. As we face unprecedented challenges like climate change, corporate consolidation, and now federal funding freezes, one thing remains clear: we must keep growing organic. That means investing in the farmers who steward the land with care, many of whom are just starting out or historically excluded from traditional agricultural systems. It means ensuring access to farmer-led education, field days rooted in culture and language justice, and practical tools to support resilience on the farm. And it means doing it together, with you! This spring, we’ve seen what’s possible when our community shows up. Events, partnerships, and your generosity have already made a meaningful impact. But to keep that momentum going—especially with deep cuts to the funding we depend on—we need your support. 🌱 Give back to the land. 🌿 Grow the future of organic. 💚 Donate to Marbleseed today. P.S. Every gift, big or small, helps keep organic growing strong. Your donation ensures that farmers have the resources, community, and knowledge they need to nourish people and planet.

Join us virtually on Thursday, June 5, from 4:30 6 p.m. for a webinar on Indigenous Food and Agriculture Apprenticeship! Join Jen Falck to learn about tribal food sovereignty work on the Oneida Reservation. Kahulahele Farmstead’s mission is to demonstrate and teach community members how to operate a small-scale farm including livestock, poultry, produce, alternative energy, Indigenous planting, and bartering. Ukwahkwa Farmstead’s mission to help the community learn about traditional Haudenosaunee agricultural methods of planting, growing, harvesting, seedkeeping, food preparation, storage, and tool making. The farms have formed a partnership and collaborated on several projects for the Oneida community and beyond. In 2024, they received a NCR-SARE Farmer Rancher grant and used the funding to test a model to share an agriculture apprentice. Learn more at: https://marbleseed.org/events/field-days (fb)
