Non-profit farm cultivating health, jobs, and food justice
"A local, Black- and women-led nonprofit that educates teens about eco-friendly farming and trains new farmers who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC); it is a 501(c)(3) organization and donations are tax deductible." - Naomi Waxman
"A Bridgeport-based farming nonprofit that runs youth and adult programming—basic growing techniques, job training and new-farmer incubation—and currently engages more than 200 teens. Its leaders are planning to relaunch a produce market inside a bus and are using fellowship resources to learn how to scale and diversify that effort, broaden offerings and deepen the organization’s role in food education and economic opportunity." - Naomi Waxman
