Community to Community Development and Familias Unidas Por la Justicia invite you to the Annual Marcha Campesina! The march starts 10am at Edgewater Park in Mt Vernon WA. Watch this great short video of the 2023 March (featuring CAGJ’s beautiful banner!)
March with us to learn about critical issues Farmworkers are facing now and what actions you can take with us! March with us to celebrate the strength and resilience of farm worker families working towards a better food system.
We invite our friends and allies working for food and economic justice to join us; more details about the event will be shared as we get closer. We need volunteers! If you are interested, contact us: [email protected]

April 17th: International Day of Peasant Struggles
La Via Campesina
On April 17, we mark the International Day of Peasant Struggles, an annual action day of La Via Campesina that brings us together to commemorate the Eldorado do Carajás massacre that occurred in Brazil in 1996, and to honor the resistance of peasants worldwide who persist in their struggle for social justice and dignity. Learn more about this global day of action and how you can get involved. Build Solidarity! Enough with the genocide, evictions and violence! #17April #PeasantStruggles #FoodSovereigntyNow #PeasantRightsNow
