A WORD FROM THE TEAM
In our 5th year of operations, we are grateful for the focus the year has brought on building out the organizational capacity and strengthening the relationships essential to achieve our mission. Our mission–to nurture Black community wealth & health by investing in Black agricultural systems in the Northeast, is dependent on community power. Through centering ancestral wisdom and remaining grounded in our roots and values, we put power in the hands of Black food actors, we practice community-led decisions, and center reciprocity to build a stronger we.
We invite you to continue on this journey with Black Farmer Fund as we build BFF Fund 2.0.
With immense gratitude and appreciation for you all,
Olivia, Christina, Onyx, Charles, Jared, Olamide, Janet, Savannah, Mykalee, Amanda, Sonja, Mama Karen, Onika, Rhyston, Mekaelia, Tori , Ribka, & Chinwe
