write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line.
3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has

Subject: Application deadline coming up.

Yiddish Farm Summer Program with the Support of the Naomi Prawer Kadar 
Foundation Inc.

Speak Yiddish.

The best way to master a language is to speak it. Participants in our 
program experience hundreds of hours of sustained Yiddish immersion with 
native speakers. Build Community.

Yiddish is more than a language. It is the culture that unites our 
intentional community. Join us as we eat, learn, work, sing and dream 
together in Yiddish. Live sustainably.

Not just a fad: We grow food, enrich the soil, and minimize waste. Our 
goal is a Yiddish-speaking community living in harmony with history and 
nature. Help us get there.

Want to live in a pluralistic Yiddish-speaking community this summer? 
Spend your days farming organically and studying Yiddish language, 
literature and theater?  You can't experience this anywhere else but 
Yiddish Farm! For more information, please visit our Summer Program page 
or email info at yiddishfarm.org


Registration closes on March 15. For dates and applications [CONTACT THE 
ORGANIZERS, AT THEIR EMAIL ADDRESS].
