Farming While Black: Soul Fire Farm's Practical Guide to Liberation on the Land
Description
An empowering, practical guide to reclaiming land, food, and agricultural knowledge through the lens of Black farming traditions and food justice. Drawing on the work of Soul Fire Farm, it covers the essentials of small-scale agriculture—from whole-farm planning, soil health, and seed selection to business development, harvesting, preservation, and culturally grounded cooking. Throughout, ancestral wisdom and contemporary agroecology are woven together with reflections on racism, land dispossession, healing, and collective liberation. Accessible to beginning and intermediate growers while offering fresh perspective to experienced farmers, the book presents farming as both a technical practice and a powerful path toward community resilience.
