“The soil knows our names. We are still here, still planting.”

“Still planting. Still healing. Still building.”

What This Is

The Black Agrarian is the national directory for Black farmers, growers, food producers, agricultural businesses, and organizations. Agrarian means connected to land, growing, farming, food production, and the communities built around them.

This isn’t just a list of farms. It’s a living record of farmers, ranchers, seed keepers, beekeepers, nurseries, educators, researchers, organizations, and every other form of Black agricultural life — built by us, for our cousins.
