They shall not plant and another eat;

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

TAKE ACTION

"Experience is clear. Farm worker life will not improve by acts of compassion alone. They are important but they are not enough. Basic justice comes through contracts negotiated and managedby workers in their own unions."
Sam Trickey, NFWM Board
Explore the sections below for ways you, your congregation or your community organization can stand with farm workers in their struggle for for equality, freedom, and justice.

PRAY AND REFLECT

Praying in the streets Prayer and reflection are the basis of our work and an important support. We provide several prayer resources.
ACTION ALERTS

A vital way to act in solidarity with farm workers is to respond to action alerts and to invite others -- church members, justice and peace groups, friends -- to do the same.

PLAN A FARM WORKER CELEBRATION

NFWM encourages supporters to participate in a tradition of the farm worker movement. We are offering all the materials you'll need to HOST A SACRIFICIAL MEAL HONORING THE HANDS THAT HARVEST OUR FOOD

OR

Plan a Farm Worker Sabbath Worship Service for your congregation or community and raise an offering to support the work of NFWM.  Resources that can be used at the service are available at Worship Resources in English or Spanish

VOLUNTEER

Sharing your time and talents to further the mission of NFWM is an invaluable way to be in solidarity with farm workers in their struggle for justice.

If you are interested in volunteering, please contact the national office or the state office closest to you (see
Contact Information). You can be of service in the office and/or in the field.

ORGANIZE LOCALLY

Educate Within Your Communities: Educate members of your congregation or community organization and seek the endorsement of current farm worker boycotts and campaigns. These endorsements are vital for the success of farmworker efforts.

Join With Others: NFWM works with congregations and community organizers in many parts of the U.S. to gather support for the field organizing of farmworker organizations. Let us know if you want help finding your nearest farmworker support group.
