This farm is for our community, for us.  If we lose this battle and it gets taken away we will not be for ourselves no longer, we will be fully depending on wharehouses and stores, which by the way don't give a crap about us and sells us bad quality food for them to make a quick dollar.  Please, if possible, let me know what I can do and where you are located so I can contribute my help.  I am unable to provide money but I really would love to help save this farm.  I want you to win, not them.

The organizers are really busy (obviously), so I'm taking the time and the presumption to answer--GO TO THE FARM!  \r\n\r\nThere's work to be done during the day--cooking, cleaning, security, media, running errands.  Take some time to walk around and watch the food grow.  There's vigiling at night, every night 7:00 p.m.  And those vigils are both a strong statement of community support, and support for the people staying on the Farm.\r\n\r\nThe daily operations are mostly women-run.  It's comfortable, the humblest work is the most respected, and everyone's welcoming.","author":"Leslie","parent_id":160867,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2006-05-31 17:29:42","modified":"2006-05-31 17:29:42","fileurl":""}]}
