Annual Conference Mission Opportunity - Come to Annual Conference early on May 29th to participate!

The Urban Farm Church at Maize Manor UMC is a sustainable urban farm where people come to center the heart, mind, body, and spirit, and serve their neighbors. Built in 2023, the 1/2-acre Farm produced and gave away 2,000 pounds of fresh vegetables in its first year, and expects to triple that in 2024! The 4.5-acre site also includes a meditation garden and wildflower prairie, and a 1/2-mile storybook nature trail is being built this spring.

DETAILS:
Come between 1:00 pm and 4:00 pm. Wear boots or old shoes; bring work gloves. Volunteers will receive a free Urban Farm Church water bottle! Adults, youth, and families with children are welcome!

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING:
Learn about sustainable, urban agriculture and how your church can start growing food for your community! Tasks may include planting, weeding, watering, painting, or light construction. In case of rain, indoor activities may include painting and sorting clothing for our free clothing closet.
