Gossy: Threading Through Cotton, Crochet, and Afro-Diaspora Fiber Arts

This Spring we’re partnering with the Cultivemos Queer Farmers Cohort for their skill share series to highlight the connection between farming and fiber arts in the African diaspora.

Join us @enyfarms on Saturday April 15th 1-2:30pm to discuss some of the threads that weave cotton together with the fiber art of crochet and practice your hands at some basic crochet techniques to make a simple accessory.

FREE Registration at the link in our bio and materials will be provided thanks to the generous support of @youngfarmers. Space and materials are limited so please only register if you can definitely attend, or let us know if you’re no longer able to attend.

Cultivemos (formerly known as FRSAN-NE, the Farm and Ranch Stress Assistance Network Northeast) is a project of the National Young Farmers Coalition @youngfarmers and the Cultivemos Queer Farmers Cohort is a group of queer farmers cultivating network building within the queer farmer community. Additionally through skill shares like these they’re aiming to uplift queer farmer knowledge while fostering connections.
