Black Food Sovereignty Initiatives - Urban Farm

Black Food Sovereignty Initiatives aim to engage Black students, faculty, staff, and the broader community through the sharing of food from farm to table, and challenge the systemic racism that persists within contemporary food production, urban agricultural systems, and within our institutions by developing opportunities for Black-centric programming, training, and food cultivation.

The Urban Farm offers two Black Food Sovereignty Initiatives: 

Harvest Collective

This initiative invites members of the Black Faculty & Staff Community Network (BFSCN) to share in the harvest of crops enjoyed across the African diaspora by participating in the new Bankra Basket Harvest Share program.

Learning Circle

The program offers a wide variety of experiential learning workshops aimed at engaging the Black community as we explore Black Food Sovereignty in action.
