SUMMARY:Sundance Harvest presents: How to Farm in Community
DESCRIPTION:Sundance Harvest presents: How to Farm in Community\n  \nDate: Sunday\, February 26th\, 2023\, 2pm-4pm \nLocation: QPIRG-Concordia (#205-2100 rue Guy) \nRegister here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/how-to-farm-in-community-with-sundance-harvest-tickets-537990824037 \nIn this interactive and very hands on workshop you will dive into what farming in a community looks like from the cooperative\, collaborative and community land trust lens from the past and present day. You will create a blueprint of what your own community farm can look like either as a career to make a fair income for yourself and workers such as Sundance Harvest or on a different scale. We won’t be speaking about just vegetables! Mushrooms\, herbalism\, livestock and much more will be covered. Everyone has a role to play in community and you will learn how to troubleshoot common communication issues\, land access\, capital startup\, infrastructure build\, simple crop plans and of course how to figure out what part of a forest you really are? \nThis is the ideal workshop to come to if you know you want to grow with the land\, and you know it’s best to do that in community. \nThis is not a lecture! You will be moving and grooving around the room in a form of a circuit. You will be able to socialize\, brainstorm and at the end of the workshop have a definite plan for your next steps along with crucial resources provided. \nHosted by Cheyenne Sundance\, the owner and farm director of the living wage certified and 3 acre farm Sundance Harvest. \nhttps://www.sundanceharvestmarket.com/ \nSundance Harvest grows food and farmers year round. The Sundance Harvest Market Farmer Incubation program is the only one of it’s kind in Ontario. With programs such as CRAFT and FarmStart disappearing in south-western Ontario\, there is a deep need for a full and immersive incubation program that isn’t just a plot of land. Our program goes into the deep of it. All our Market Farmers have access to: up to 1/4 ac of organic farmed land\, cold storage\, compost\, seeds\, seedling equipment\, irrigation kits\, water access\, heat access\, dry storage\, landscape fabric\, caterpillar tunnels\, greenhouse space\, marketing\, crop planning guidance\, branding and zero lease cost. This is all included in the $5\,000 one time cost or is free for the Black Business and Farm Incubation Program that got funded through a Fundrazer we held this year to allow true equity. One of the most well known pieces of the farm is the Indigenous land stewardship work we have been doing in collaboration with other nations and our Market Farmer Incubation Program (which is 100% funded for the Black Biz and Farming Incubator arm so participants can grow and learn for free) \nThis event is supported by QPIRG-McGill\, QPIRG-Concordia\, Frigo Vert\, and Divest McGill.
