Many people do not know that Black women are some of the most underrepresented people in the agricultural industry. Though nurturing and nature runs through our ancestry and veins, we are often left out of conversations, decisions, and resources surrounding our viability, nutrition, and overall well-being. Not anymore. Farmasis has a goal of growing 10,000 Black women farmers. Today, you can help us! Follow the link to join us in the movement!
