SCHEDULE FOR FEBRUARY:

Human Dignity for Prisoners


I wanted to share some information about an action being organized by our friends at the Ames Catholic Worker house:

Giving Tuesday - the corncrib still needs your help

Dear Friends,

For this Giving Tuesday, if you are looking for a way to give back to your community, consider a donation to Mustard Seed Community Farm. Your support will help us repair and renovate our corn-crib, and to continue to share good food with those in need and our work to build a more just and equitable society.

Do you like braiding? How about bread? Of course the answer is Yes, Yes!! So, come join Benjamin and the Mustard Seed Community this Friday @ 3pm (11/13), for the first virtual skillshare of the season, where you'll learn how to bake challah and hear some fun facts about the history and significance of this traditional Jewish Sabbath bread.

election day work on the farm!

it's been a wild and difficult and sometimes surreal year so far.
While most of the regular garden work is done for the season, we are taking advantage of some nice weather this week to do a few end of season things, including digging the last carrots and cleaning the last garlic. We are looking for some helpers this Tuesday, election day. if you would like some concrete work to distract you from your worries about the state of the nation - come on out to the farm!

quick summary of the year:
