Disabled Jewish Farmers

Blessings for Disabled Jewish Farmers_Or

Calling all Disabled Jewish Farmers! We'd love for you to join our community of disabled (or crip, Deaf***, mad, mentally ill, neurodivergent, chronic pain, chronically ill, etc) folks to gush and kvell** at our magic while sharing what it’s like to be a farmer (or to *want* to be a farmer) as disabled people—the woes, frustrations, victories, and connections we have with the land. We gather monthly with rotating facilitators and would love for you to join our next call.

​

Every other month DJF will alternate between Sunday afternoons and Tuesday evenings in order to accomodate more people's schedule. Read on for this year's schedule:

 

2024 Schedule

​

First Tuesdays @ 3:30-5pm Pacific / 6:30-8pm Eastern: March 5, May 7, July 2, September 3, November 5

​

First Sundays @ 12-1:30pm Pacific / 3-4:30pm Eastern: April 7, June 2, August 4, October 6, December 1 

​

 

**Every month there will be a community-led skillshare on a topic such as animal care, hypermobility, or body/land liberation from a disabled Jewish farmer perspective. We will also collaborate to make a zine for distribution at the Jewish Farmer Conference in December 2024**

 

***ASL interpretation is not currently provided, but we welcome signers to join with VRS interpreters. If ASL interpretation would enable you to participate, email us ASAP at liel@jewishfarmernetwork.org so we can arrange for interpretation. These meetings have automated closed captions. We are committed to finding ways to meet each other's access needs.

**kvell is a Yiddish word for feeling or expressing pride and/or delight
