Eighth Day Farm » Farming in the City

Vote for us for 5×5!

Hey friends of the farm!

There is an event in Grand Rapids that awards $5,000 to a business or non-profit every month. Organizations share who they are and what they would use the money for and the general public votes to see which five organizations will be get to go before a panel of judges at the end of the month and compete for the 5 grand.
Our friends Adam and Jenna at Ambrose won this past month and we’ve been encouraged to enter.
So, if you would be willing to visit the website 5x5night.com and register (it’s free) and place your vote for Eighth Day Farm that would be a great help in getting us into the final five.
Thanks so much!

Eighth Day Farm Updates

Even though the snow is thick, we are busy preparing the farm for the upcoming 2012 growing season.  We thought we’d take a moment to update you all.

  1.  2012 CSA sign up for previous Eighth Day Farm CSA members is going on now.  In February, we’ll open sign-up to those on our waiting list.  This will be posted on our website and we’ll be contacting each person individually.
  2. This year will begin selling produce from both of our sites. More to come on this topic as the season begins.
  3. We’ve just submitted our paperwork to the federal government  for our 501c3 status!  We should know this spring whether we’re approved.  Please pray for a quick and easy process.
  4. We have a new P.O. Box number.  Our new mailing address is:
