Black Farmers Index

Maintaining and expanding The Index, a large publicly sourced online database of Black producers, growers, ranchers, beekeepers, foresters, foragers, and fisherfolk. Through The Index we drive exposure to farmers in the following ways: a comprehensive online directory; media promotion and short online stories; instructional short videos; educational workshops for farmers; food-centered virtual and in-person events; curated farmer lists for individuals and institutions; farmer features in news or other media outlets; and data gathering and reporting.

Provide on-farm, agricultural-centered activities by curating tours, field days, workshops, meet ups, networking sessions, educational classes and dinner gatherings across the United States.

Provide technical assistance, market development assistance and resource information to both producers and the public. This also includes data gathering and reporting; and collaborations with organizations and companies on initiatives.
