Southeastern African American Farmers' Organic Network is excited to share with you our newly published report Growing the Legacy: Stewarding a Black Agrarian Revival in the Rural South. The report is a culmination of many years of work at SAAFON and serves as an introduction to the topic of Black agrarianism and land loss. It contains a description of SAAFON, interviews with selected legacy farmer-members and beginning farmers, and a brief outline of strategies to interrupt land loss and facilitate a Black agrarian revival in the Southeast. SAAFON hopes to continue to publish its unique content on reviving Black agrarianism and interrupting land loss with a particular focus on farmer stories, historical narratives, and detailed strategies.
We invite you to share widely amongst your networks as you see fit.
