"Farming has been a revolutionary act-both as a means of sustenance in the face of dehumanization and constant erasure, and also as a full-circle return. In recent years, the latent seeds of Black agriculture have begun to sprout again as Black and other oppressed people are returning to agrarian identities that have been suffused with stigma and trauma, and reimbuing them with honor and pride. In cities, they are reclaiming urban space and developing new relationships to food and farming. They are rediscovering land where there seemingly was none: in the parkway dirt between the sidewalk and the street, in pots on porches, and in the tracts of empty, blighted lots. There are also the stirrings of a reverse migration from the city back to the countryside, where a new generation of Black farmers are reclaiming traditions and relearning lost skills to survive the end of the (modern) world"

This is a wonderful thing. The beekeeper forgot to put the frame in his hive, so the bees just freestyled, building a structure that would best handle temperature and ventilation. Organic form. [via ]

Returntonow.net is amazing!

This is why we stay
🌱
The soil on the right is what we worked with when we first started caring for the land at our urban plot...
🌱
With years of organic matter, compost and plenty of TLC from the community, it has turned into black gold..the rich, fluffy, crumbly texture that makes our plants thrive
🌱
This is how WeGrow...
