Strength to Love II is an urban farm in Sandtown-Winchester in west Baltimore. We grow and sell fresh produce to combat food apartheid in our neighborhood. Continuing on our mission to bring new growth and cause for celebration in our community, we are starting up Sandtown-Winchester's first farmers market! It will start on Friday, June 3rd from 4-7 PM and will continue throughout the summer on the first and third Fridays of the month.
FOR FRIDAY JUNE 17: We have two shifts available - volunteers for the 3:00-5:30 PM shift will assist with setup, directing market-goers, and help run the Strength to Love II info booth. Volunteers for the 5:30-8:00 PM shift will assist with engaging with market-goers and breakdown once the market ends.
Thank you in advance for helping our community!

Mission Statement
Intersection of Change (formerly Newborn Holistic Ministries) is a community-based nonprofit focused on community development in west Baltimore. The organization is dedicated to providing programs that enrich the economic, social and spiritual lives of those dealing with poverty related issues in the Sandtown-Winchester and surrounding communities. Work to date has resulted in significant neighborhood revitalization of the 1900 and 2000 blocks of Pennsylvania Avenue through the full renovation of six previously vacant and dilapidated buildings, transformation of 18 vacant lots into community green spaces and meditative gardens, and the creation of a dozen neighborhood murals.
Description
Programs by Intersection of Change include:
Martha's Place: A recovery program for women overcoming drug addiction and homelessness that offers both a six-month transitional phase as well as a long-term independent housing phase. The program helps women achieve sobriety while maintaining a job and housing and serves approximately 50 women per year.
Jubilee Arts: A comprehensive art program that offers alternative to the dangers of drugs and violence in the community. Jubilee Arts provides art classes (in ceramics, visual arts, dance, and writing) six days a week and cultural activities to both children and adults and serves approximately 1,500 people annually.
