“I can only describe the field trip to Everdale as the most amazing experience of my entire life” – (Read the full letter HERE )

Dear Friends,

Everdale needs your help. As a charity, our work requires support from outside sources (government, foundations, and donors) to make ends meet. It has been an amazing year for our farm and educational programs but a difficult year for funding. This is why we are asking for your help. Everdale needs to raise $15,000 by the end of the year. No donation is too small or too big. Every little bit helps us to achieve our goal.

With so many great charities asking for your hard earned dollars why should you support Everdale?

You should support Everdale if you believe that food is the answer to building a more secure and healthy future. 

You should support Everdale because it is a hands-on farm school with a history of success:

• Over 15,000 children have come to Everdale to learn the story of their food. These children will become the environmentalists, entrepreneurs, local food champions and farmers of the future.
• Over 7000 people have taken a sustainable living workshop or attended an event at Everdale.
• Over 60 new farmers have been trained and have established new farms that grow food for local communities across the country.

Check out these links to see what three of our many farmer grads are doing:

Angie Koch – Fertile Ground CSA,

Shannon Jones – Broadfork Farm,

Erica Lemieux – City Seed Farms

Inspiring isn’t it? We see amazing young people like this every day. They are ready to change the world through growing and sharing food. Need more inspiration? Here is a short movie about Everdale created as part of a digital story telling project: Incubating Hope

If any of what you saw (and there is more at www.everdale.org) moved or inspired you please make a DONATION .Your money makes real change happen. Food is grown, communities are built, and our world is repaired one seed at a time.

Please help us to keep this vital work strong.

In gratitude,

Brendan Johnson

Executive Director
