Join for as little as $10/ year: if you’re able to give more, this foundational support is essential to the daily operations of all our programs.

We welcome one-time or monthly donations.

Monthly donations give NOFA/Mass a stable, dependable source of funds to build and maintain the local organic and regenerative movement: through programs in education, policy, food access, carbon farming, soil testing, technical assistance, and more.

Recurring monthly donations help us to reduce our fundraising costs, and these donations can be cancelled anytime by contacting membership@nofamass.org.

All contributions help us move towards our shared vision of people working together towards supporting farmers and food systems workers, and to increase food access, racial equity, soil health, and environmental justice.

“I’m happy to report that NOFA Mass played a pivotal role in my awakening to the wonders of soil vitality and ecological farming. I fondly remember bopping around the UMass campus during the NOFA summer conference (maybe 2009) when I was a young pup just getting into farming. With a copy of “One Straw Revolution” in hand, I went from soil workshop to soil workshop like a honeybee harvesting nectar, and I gleaned practical insights and profound inspiration from knowledgeable and wise presenters. And I have built upon that experience ever since. Now I take great pleasure introducing others to the magnificence of the microbes and the symphony of symbiosis which is sustained in healthy soil, and as we behold the abundance that sprouts therefrom we are reminded that the Universe is friendly! So keep up the good work; you never know what kind of impact you’re having!”

The Power of Sustaining Membership

We encourage you to contribute in whatever way makes the most sense for you, with the understanding that recurring or “sustaining” online donations go the furthest in providing consistent, reliable revenue we can count on throughout the year.

Sustaining membership allows you the ability to set automatic monthly payments of $5 or more, so that you can help support NOFA/Mass programming year-round.

To enroll, go to the membership page, select the amount you would like to pay per month, choose ‘monthly‘, and then proceed with payment.

Your ongoing support means everything. We appreciate your questions during this time of transition. 

Questions? Write to membership@nofamass.org. We look forward to hearing from you.
