They shall not plant and another eat;

When we pray and act with them, we are changed also.

Harvest of Justice Season


NFWM is encouraging our supporters to participate in a tradition of the farm worker movement -- host a sacrificial meal honoring the hands that harvest our food.

The basic idea is simple:

friends at dinner
gather friends, family and faith communities

altar
pray and reflect on farm workers' lives. giving thanks for their labor and seeking justice with them.

bread and soup
eat a humble meal together, usually soup and bread.

The meal can be prepared together in advance, or can be brought potluck, resulting in a mouthwatering variety of flavors.

hand donating cash
Offer the money that you might have spent on a dinner out to support the farm worker struggle.

In this case, we are hoping that the collection would be donated to NFWM to support our ongoing work.
