Creating cultural understanding Our main project is a yearly immersion trip to Mexico.

We are a small, non-profit organization located in West Central Wisconsin that aims to increase cultural understanding in our community, especially in agriculture. Other initiatives we have done include the Many Voices, One Community project and a Dairy Certification Program.

A day that celebrates farmers and Indigenous people seems like the perfect time to remind everyone in the La Crosse area about our program this Wednesday. Come learn about the ripple effect of farm jobs and the strength of families who work together across borders to create a better life for their families and the next generation.

If you haven’t seen our exhibit yet and you want to check it out and meet family members of the women featured, we would ❤️ to see you there!

Thank you to Samantha and everyone at Hispanic Outreach of Goodhue County for putting on such an amazing festival on Saturday! We had so much fun taking in all of the music and activities and talking with folks who walked through the exhibit and were impacted by the women's stories. It was a beautiful day and we loved being part of it and seeing everyone who came out to be together to celebrate many different cultures. They handed out bracelets that said "We're Better Together...Juntos es Mejor" and we couldn't agree more. 💖

The exhibit will be at the Hispanic Heritage Festival in Red Wing tomorrow from 12-6! We’ll have interactive activities and a chance to soak in the meaning of the exhibit in the midst of music and dancing and delicious food that celebrates cultures from all over Latin America. We’d love to see you there.

We are so grateful to our community—thank you for coming out to The Grove on Friday and supporting our annual fundraiser on a very rainy day!

We know our fields needed the moisture. So, you all took it in stride, and thirteen hardy teams still showed up with the best attitudes. Because of you and our hole sponsors and generous donors, we were able to raise $5,321 to continue building cultural understanding in our rural communities.

You are the reason that we have the privilege of doing this work and can continue to strengthen our connections to one another. Thank you to The Grove for being wonderful hosts, to all of our volunteers and players and sponsors - we are incredibly thankful for your generosity, your time, and your persistence.

We can’t wait to see you at the next one - our 20th!
