What is Campesina Womb Justice?
Campesina Womb Justice is a mutual aid project for Indigenous farm workers, providing food, resources for women's health, and education around pregnancy and birth. Started by Midwife Maria Ramos Bracamontes, they are dedicated to amplifying the voices of marginalized women and providing them with ancestral womb medicine and mutual aid. They firmly believe in healing, justice, and reparations for all, especially those who have been systematically excluded and oppressed.

Why a Fundraiser?
Earth Dance is excited about bridging communities throughout Santa Cruz County as well as bridging our connection to the Earth and our Bodies. We want to honor and celebrate indigenous farm workers for their hard work and commitment to tending the Earth and providing food for us all. We feel that dancing will be a beautiful way to do this!
