Labor Link Montgomery

As we all adjust to a new normal under Coronavirus, farmers are finding ways to keep feeding our community even as they must change their business models overnight. One tough issue is finding labor. At the same time, the virus has disrupted the careers of many, many people. Labor Link Montgomery is MCA's effort to connect people needing work with local farms that are ramping up production. Watch this space for opportunities. If you are a farmer needing help, contact us at info@mocoalliance.org. 

In the mean time, for those looking for local volunteer opportunities and other resources - check out our Coronavirus resource page.
