๐Ÿ”ฅWe are facing a national crisis. Since his inauguration, Donald Trump has launched an unprecedented power grabโ€”driving up prices, slashing funding for essential programs, and creating instability at every turn. Enabled by Elon Musk and Republicans in Congress, his corrupt agenda is making life harder for everyday Americans while eroding our democracy. We canโ€™t afford to wait any longer to fight back.

๐ŸทThey think everything belongs to them. Trump and his allies are rapidly stripping America for parts and selling us outโ€”and now Congress is trying to do the same by slashing Medicaid, Social Security, cancer research funding, and more. Why? To give more tax cuts to billionaires.

๐Ÿ’ธBut the services and jobs theyโ€™re slashing arenโ€™t theirsโ€”theyโ€™re ours. Our communities are paying the price while the Trumps and Musks of the world cash in. Itโ€™s not just about moneyโ€”itโ€™s about power. This administration is targeting everybody who isnโ€™t part of the 1%โ€”veterans, kids, seniors, farmers, immigrants, transgender people, and political opponents. All to consolidate power and reward their allies.

โœ‹The lawlessness, cruelty, and corruption has gone too far. On April 5, we unite to say: Hands Off!
Whether youโ€™re outraged by skyrocketing healthcare costs, job cuts, attacks on privacy, or the gutting of essential servicesโ€”this moment is for you. Whether youโ€™ve been in the fight for years or youโ€™re just fed up and ready to take actionโ€”this moment is for you.

๐Ÿ›‘ We need to build a massive, visible, national rejection of this crisis. On April 5, we will host events across the country, in major cities and small towns in every state. Our goal is to show that the peopleโ€”the majorityโ€”are taking action to stop the corruption and power grab.

๐Ÿ’ช The power is in your hands. Join us!

Such a lovely day with our youth urban farm club! ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐Ÿฅฌ๐Ÿ…

Since it was 95 degrees that day, we decided to start indoors at the downtown North Bergen public library and recreation center! We facilitated a discussion about organizing in our local communities for environmental justice ๐ŸŒŽ the youth spent time thinking about projects theyโ€™d like to start up in their own towns and we shared ideas/resources to support them on their missions!

Then we got the opportunity to care for the patio community garden ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฑ there were a lot of weeds overpowering our native and vegetable plants/herbs so we removed that competition so our preferred plants can thrive! There was some yummy produce growing in the unclaimed planting beds so we were able to harvest and distribute the produce among the group ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฅฌ

It was such a beautiful day overall and weโ€™re looking forward to the rest of our 2024 program! ๐Ÿ’š

Our Third Year of the Braddock Park Youth Urban Farm Club!

๐ŸŒค๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐Ÿฅฆ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฅ’๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿพโ€๐ŸŒพ

We had a lovely first session with the youth that will be learning and growing with us this year! ๐Ÿ™Œ

The Youth Farm Club was established by the 4H Club which is a network of youth organizations whose mission is โ€œengaging youth to reach their fullest potential while advancing the field of youth development!โ€

๐ŸŒŽ๐Ÿ’š

4H has Farm Clubs across the United States, but there arenโ€™t really farms in Urban areas so adapted it to suit our more Urban environment so our youngins have access too!

This first day we spent time getting to know one another, set community agreements/goals for future sessions, explored the garden, planted our own vegetable/herb bed, and shared space with local residents through libation: an acknowledgment of the Lenape land we occupy ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿซ‚

It was such a lovely first day and we are excited to continue learning alongside the youth for the rest of the summer! โ˜€๏ธ
