Coming Soon!
Free 1-Hour Online Support Group for Farmers & Farm Workers (dates TBD)
Are you feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of farm life? Join a support group where you can find validation, connection, and grounding mindfulness techniques.
In our groups, you’ll have the opportunity to connect with others who truly understand what you’re going through. Together, we’ll share coping strategies, mindfulness techniques, and ways to ground ourselves so that we can all recharge and be more present in our daily lives. These gatherings are not just about sharing, but also about practicing community care and taking a few moments for yourself.
On its own, farming can be rough on the body and the soul. Trying to do this work in a broken system and volatile environment is even harder. This group does not minimize the many personal, local and global stressors that make farming difficult.
Have you felt overwhelmed, helpless or hopeless when facing these challenges on the farm?
Finances and cash flow crunches
Long hours and little time for yourself, friends and family
Weather, pests and diseases that impact the crops and livestock
Unpredictable markets, rising costs and unstable supply chains
Feeling stuck with low pay, limited benefits or potential for real upward mobility at work
You are not alone! This experience is all too common among farmers and farm workers - but together we can build community, connection and resiliency to make the journey of farmwork easier to navigate. Talking in community can be a validating way to process these normal emotions, feel less alone, share strategies that feel doable and helpful.
