A message from the board of The Full Moon Farm Collective:
In a time of need, our Boone community has the strength to move mountains. A beloved local farm, The Full Moon Farm Collective, was recently targeted by a racist hate crime and vandalism. We will come together, as a united community, to stand against this hate and celebrate the diversity, love, and solidarity that makes our hometown sacred.
To read more about the farm's response to the crime and vandalism please read the
@wataugademocrat article linked in the
@fizz_ed_boone bio. And if you're not familiar with
@fullmoonfarmnc (The Full Moon Farm Collective) please take a look at their website or Facebook page!
They grow and donate over 13,000 lbs of produce to local food pantries as well as host community resiliency and ecotherapy workshops on the farm.
