Feed ourselves to free ourselves project
Agroecology and Food Sovereignty
The project gives you an opportunity to receive hands-on experience combined with reading, classes, and training. Participants work on local black farms, where they experience the day-to-day operations of a farm exploring value-added production, culinary arts, concepts and practices of sustainability. Sharing skills increases the capacity for sustainable community production, including the increased capacity to produce and distribute transplants, seeds and resources for sustainable agriculture practices in food insecure communities.
This project will provide a culturally relevant, educational approach focused on giving participants hands-on learning experiences and on developing the capacity for sustainable community production.
is a large component of the apprenticeship program, because it is a large component of farming. We will facilitate 4 Agroecology workshops on Black farms across Kansas city. We will seed, plant, learn harvesting techniques and more.
We are our own Liberators
