Deep in the Wilderness
May 4, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. Online and in-person
Rev. Joyce Palmer
The place people go for preparation is the wilderness. A way to look at this time in our collective experience is to see it as a call to prepare and respond with courage. We’ll get where we need to be together.
Join us this Sunday for our annual ritual celebrating beauty, human uniqueness, diversity and community. Bring a flower and we’ll have flowers available to share!
We will Share the Plate with Farmers Rising At Farmers Rising, we lift up the people doing local and regenerative farming. We create space for you to learn alongside other growers and farmers, improve your business and production skills, and connect with eaters, partners and local food advocates of all ages and walks of life.
Our work to build sustainable local food and farm systems honors the people working the land, recognizes healthy food as a human right, and dismantles extractive food systems…putting us at the forefront of farmer training.
