MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS

Week 41/52 of 2022

Dear Farm Members,

In honor of Indigenous Peoples day this week, we want to express our deep gratitude for the Nisenan People who have inhabited and stewarded this region of foothills and river canyons for thousands of years, and represent a powerful voice within our community. Mountain Bounty operates entirely on unceded Nisenan Land - every item in your boxes, any produce that you purchase from us at Briar Patch or at Farmers market, is as much a result of their work to care for this land as it is ours. The land that we work on is integral to this organization and we contribute to their Ancestral Homelands Reciprocity Program and suggest that folks local to Western Nevada County consider doing so as well! An incredible cause to support, and every little bit helps. To learn more, or to donate, check out their website at Nisenan.org.

Enjoy your shares this week,

Grace

Mark your calendars: We're hosting a Harvest Festival (and our own 25th Birthday Party!) on Saturday, November 5th. There will be games, crafts, music, square dancing, and a pig roast. Tickets on sale now!
