Crosshatch Center for Art + Ecology

To build strong communities through the intersections of art, farming, ecology and economy.

We are always looking for enthusiastic, energetic, and passionate people who want to get involved. We know that everyone has a special skill to contribute and we want to make sure volunteers are enjoying their time helping out as much as we enjoy having them.

Crosshatch envisions communities that are grounded in place: where people connect through stories, music, art, shared work, and food, and where the economy and culture are rooted in restoration of the earth and its people.

“The single most effective tool we can build is a tight-knit community, bound by trust, clear-eyed, courageous and humble. Such a thing cannot be planned for and will never be implemented by experts and with money. Such a thing is woven from what is at hand, slowly and with care, by the people in a place.”
