Black and brown people are integral to the story and work of food and farming in this country but often left out of management and farm ownership. Learn about the larger emerging BIPOC led seed grower movement and the Ujamaa initiative, born from years of organizing and new opportunities that came with the COVID 19 increase in gardening. Ujamaa is raising up a new seed company, cooperatively owned by its black and brown seed Farmer members. UJAMAA and independent black farmers like Amirah are challenging the whiteness of the seed industry. Learn how you can become a part of this movement as a farmer or supporter!
