🌾 Stories from the Harvest: Why Your Support Matters

Our community is strongest when we lift one another up. Stories from the Harvest is more than an event — it is a movement to support local farmers, empower youth, and build a healthier future for the Central Valley.

🌱 Why Your Support Is Needed

When you donate to Stories from the Harvest, you are investing in three powerful community needs:

1. Sustaining the Lives of Our Local Farmers

Yo’Ville Community Garden & Farm is a vital space where farmers grow fresh produce, practice sustainable agriculture, and strengthen food access for families.
Your contribution helps:

• Maintain and develop the community farm

• Support farmer training and the Yo’Ville Farm Incubator Program

• Keep local growers connected to the people they feed

2. Enriching Youth Learning and Connection to the Land

So many young people in the Central Valley grow up surrounded by agriculture, but never get the chance to meet the people behind their food.
This event gives them that opportunity.
Your support helps:

• Create hands-on activities for youth

• Build meaningful connections between students and local farmers

• Inspire curiosity, leadership, and community pride

3. Expanding Equity For All’s Inspire Youth Storytelling Program

Funds also support Equity For All’s existing workshops and storytelling programs, which help youth explore identity, career dreams, and real-world experiences through guided storytelling.
Your donation strengthens:

• Workshop materials

• Program development

• Student support and mentorship opportunities

This work is already changing lives — and with your help, we can reach even more youth across the Central Valley.
