The
Tamworth Farmers' Market began the practice of doubling patron's SNAP/New Hampshire EBT
dollars four years ago. People who might not otherwise have access to
healthy fruits and vegetables, grown by local farmers, can access
great food and experience the interwoven community of the farmers'
market. This program is supported by donations. Our project has two
goals. The first is to raise $500 toward the support of this project.
The second goal is to raise awareness about the program. Along the
way we will offer the soulful experience of shared music.
A string trio with connections to Tamworth has been preparing a concert of chamber music called "Feast for the Soul." The trio is Chris Nourse and Amy Berrier, both long-time Tamworth residents and community organizers, and Ellen Schwindt, long-time participant in the Tamworth community, even though she is from "away." They will play music for two violins and viola, for piano and violin, and piano and viola.
The concert portion of our project takes place at St. Andrews in the Valley on Saturday, July 20th at 5:00 pm. In accordance with the spirit of the project, the music will be offered as a gift, with no admission fee charged. Attendees may make a donation at the concert to support this program.
A GoFundMe campaign makes it easy for people to support this campaign without needing to attend the concert. You can find the campaign by searching for “Feast for the Soul” on GoFundMe.com. We hope you come enjoy the music AND make a donation to support your neighbors in buying healthy food and creating a healthy community. All of the Funds raised through GoFundMe will go to the Tamworth Farmers Market SNAP doubling program.
Thrivent Financial has already contributed seed money that we will use to provide St. Andrews in the Valley with a building use fee and to tune the piano. The trio has contributed many hours to preparing the music and producing the concert as well as materials costs like poster printing and program printing.
We are excited to contribute our energy and spirit to this project. It is a realization of the truth that we are all connected and that our community is stronger when we all have access to the bounty of the earth. We welcome your support and are grateful for the many ways our friends and neighbors help us weave a strong community web.
