Thank you to everyone who has reached out to us wanting to help our Jamaican crew members and friends after their home was hit by Hurricane Melissa. There is now a GoFund Me page for Kim, Mckean, and Danovan (link in our bio and this post).
Kim Gayle, Mckean Thomas and Danovan Robinson are here working on one of their last Saturdays - harvesting greens for the farm store and roots for winter storage - before returning to a home that will be unrecognizable. Their presence at our farm these past 6 years has dramatically changed the trajectory of our little community farm.
Danovan is rushing home November 3rd with Mckean and Kim heading back November 11th. We expect the return to be challenging emotionally, physically, and financially. We are asking for donations so that they can both rebuild, feed their families, and get back on their feet. This return home is their “down time” and we’re heartbroken knowing they will be spending this time rebuilding.
Farming is one of the most labor-intensive jobs. Their hard work allows us to have food on the table all year long. In all honesty, they keep our farm going. It is our hope that we can all come together as a community to show appreciation for their hard work. If you can, please help them in this very serious time of need.
Sincerely,
Joe O’Grady
