The 2nd annual Rock & Rouge Women’s Music & Food Festival & beyond will take place in October 2019 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Our festival has four main cornerstones: local women-fronted bands, local women food vendors, women empowerment panels, and the STEAM Tent for young girls. For example, we had Soul Queen of New Orleans, Miss Irma Thomas as our musical headliner. Local female chefs, such as Marilyn Doucette of Meals From the Heart, serving up exquisite Southern cuisine. We also had several notable local leaders from various backgrounds on our empowerment panels. Our STEAM Tent was put on by the Rock & Rouge Foundation and was sponsored in-part by Microsoft and ElectricGirls.

Our mission is the education, empowerment, and enrichment of young girls and women from all backgrounds in Southern Louisiana, specifically the Greater New Orleans Area. In order to make this goal a reality, we need YOUR help! Last year, we were fortunate enough to have 44 volunteers with us, and this year we’re aiming even higher. We are expecting our festival to be bigger and better in its second year, which will require all hands on deck to help make it a success. We have plenty of different opportunities and positions to be filled, so there is something for everyone If you support women’s rights, access to education for youth, and/ or music and cultural heritage, then this is definitely the event for you. Please reach out to us if you have any inquiries before applying: info@therockandrouge.com.

Thank you for your interest!

Discovery Days is our most important community event and fundraiser. Event hours are Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 18 & 19 from noon until 4 PM. Volunteers are mainly needed to help serve food items such as roasted corn, brats, ice cream and popcorn. We use the ticket method so volunteers will not need to handle money. Volunteers may also be needed to help with parking, admissions, gift shop sales and kids activities. The event is expected to bring in hundreds of visitors to the farm.

Proceeds from the event directly support the Eco-Justice Center of Racine, a 15-acre, renewable energy teaching farm and home to alpacas, chickens, goats and more. Our goal is to connect kids (and adults!) to nature and nutrition. In collaboration with the Racine Unified School District, Eco-J hosts first graders for a Growing Healthy field trips. We teach nutrition and food sourcing to numerous school groups and to our summer ecology camp participants. We also offer internships to college students interested in learning organic farming methods.

Fiber from the alpacas is used for spinning, weaving, knitting, and felting; manure from the alpacas, goats, rabbits, chickens, geese, and ducks is composted and used in the organic gardens. Our bees pollinate both wild plants and garden crops. We grow about 50 varieties of fruits and veggies using organic methods and extra produce is shared with those in need through Racine's food pantries.

Renewable energy features include solar hot water, solar electric, geo-thermal heating and cooling, and wind electric from our 10Kw wind turbine. Currently, 50% of our electrical use is generated from the solar panels and wind turbine.

Through leadership and education, the Eco-Justice Center’s mission is to work for justice, healing, and right relationships among all Creation. It is a non-profit 501-C3 organization.

The PAA is a youth football and cheer organization dedicated to providing young athletes a healthy, safe, fun environment to learn the fundamental skills of the sports. Through football and cheer, we hope to impart the values of sportsmanship, teamwork, discipline and hard work that they will carry throughout their lives. We are requesting volunteer assistance throughout the season at each home game to provide assistance with our snack stand, and more importantly to work the "chains" for each game. Home teams are responsible for recruiting volunteers (typically from parents) to help work, but most of our parents are unable to volunteer due to lack of child care to young children during the games and we are often left empty handed.
