LEGACY GROWERS

Buried deep in Wisconsin’s agricultural past is the story of two farming settlements that built vibrant, thriving Black communities in Grant and Vernon counties. Now, centuries later, a new generation of Black farmers in Madison and Wisconsin is cultivating the spirit of those communities in burgeoning networks that attempt to defy the declining numbers of Black farmers nationwide.

Kynala Phillips digs into this history to tell the story of where Wisconsin’s Black farmers have been and where they’re going with farmers and organizations like

🌶 Robert Pierce, the South Madison Farmers’ Market and Neighborhood Food Solutions
🐐 Artemis Provisions & Cheese and Kingsley Gobourne
🍠 Urban Triage and Ruthanna Hutton-Okpalaeke
🥬 TradeRoots Farms and chef Yusuf Bin-Rella
🍅 Alex Booker

Also in the July issue, Madison is emerging as a hub where world-class female athletes and women in sports leadership can stand tall on the shoulders of women who came before. It’s all happening here, Anna Kottakis reports, including a female-driven front office launching a softball team, a professional women’s volleyball league bringing the game back to the U.S. and a sophomore hockey star making history. 🏒🏐

And, Emma Waldinger takes you into the hive with Gentle Breeze Honey and a few additional Madison-area beekeepers and honey programs. 🐝

Plus, we buzz about the new yard game of the summer BocceRoll, Emma Waldinger pays The Book Kitchen in Mineral Point a visit and Erica Krug finds out why we’re all falling for Hutong.

Single issue orders are now live at madisonmagazine.com. On newsstands July 3.

Eggs and greens cooked in rendered bacon fat is a simple way to take the flavor of everything to another level. Yusuf pairs those delicious sandwich ingredients with nutty Gruyère and homemade corn cakes. Originating with Indigenous communities, corn cakes are also known as johnnycakes.
