All Farmers

Refugees and immigrants entering the United States are by and large farmers. It is central to their identity and cultural integrity. Restoring these landless farmers to the land opens new possibilities for the health and vibrancy of refugee and immigrant communities and the well-being and equity of society at large.

All Farmers understands the barriers refugee and immigrant farmers face from a social justice perspective. Structural racism, language and cultural barriers, and limited financial resources are just a few of the challenges the farmers face.  With the right support and advocacy, refugee and immigrant farmers are able to work in spite of these challenges. They are a valuable asset to the local food system and our communities, and by supporting their success we support a more vibrant and just future.
