🧡 Thank you SO much to everyone who came out to celebrate another abundant season with us at Harvest Fest! We had so much fun dancing, learning, and connecting with everyone, and it would not have been possible without you, our incredible community.

🥰 An especially big thank you to all of our volunteers, workshop leaders, musicians, youth, community tables, local artists, and photographers who helped facilitate and capture this day - it is your dedication and joy that makes this work possible!

🌱 Want to continue to see free community events like this in Somerville? Stay in touch! Between our Seeds of Support fundraiser next week and our upcoming tree planting, there are still lots of ways to get involved, and we can’t wait to keep seeing you all this Fall 🍂
