BARTON — Northeast Kingdom Organizing, the Vermont Workers’ Center, and the Kairos Center for Religions, Rights and Social Justice are organizing a Survival Revival People’s Fair.

The fair will be held on Saturday, June 6, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the Orleans Fairgrounds. There is free household trash removal, muck and gut training, community meals, and more. Visit nekorganizing.org/survival to learn more.

“We always seem to have money for bombs while fuel costs, health care and housing are pinching folks’ ability to meet their basic food needs. I’m deeply concerned that the food access needs of our neighbors are increasing while the supportive resources are becoming slimmer by the day,” said Ally Howell, food sovereignty organizer with the Center for an Agricultural Economy (CAE), “We know how to organize to meet our needs, now is the time! Food is a basic human right and a matter of survival.”
