Episcopal
Ministry
Serving migrant and seasonal farmworkers in the fields, on the farms, and at home.
Farmworker
God knows they need our help. God knows we have it to give.
God teaches us that we are called to respond for the dignity and justice for all human beings and the Episcopal Farmworker Ministry (EFwM) is working with such principals to ensure a better future for farm workers and their families. Through education, the protection of their human rights, and the care of their bodies and souls, EFwM works to change the world and the system that keeps farmworkers in poverty and subhuman conditions.

EFwM News
On April 20, 2012, Episcopal Farmworker Ministry received the APPLES Service-Learning Award in honor of Ned Brooks, from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Grace Hatcher, President, and Leslie Parkins, Director, of UNC APPLES, say, "APPLES selected EFwM based on its deep commitment to building community through service and improving the quality of life of seasonal and migrant farmworkers. In particular, EFwM has engaged in a sustained partnership with APPLES alternative break programs for several years, enriching the education and experience of hundreds of Carolina students, while making a substantial impact on the lives of farmworkers and their families. ... As one recommender commented, 'By serving as a proxy community center, EFwM provides farmworkers the opportunity to make connections with one another and escape their lives of perpetual fieldwork. The EFwM community and Fr. Tony continually inspire everyone they come in contact with to dedicate themselves to service and advocating the rights of farmworkers across the country.'"
