WE ARE NOT FARM OWNERS, BUT WE ARE THE HEARTS OF THE OPERATION.

Not Our Farm (NOF) is building power among farmworkers by cultivating a virtual place of community in which farmworkers share their stories and skills, create resources, and form relationships with each other. 

FARMWORKER SPOTLIGHT

ANONYMOUS

 I feel like there's an attentiveness and care work that goes into seed farming and just farming in general. And I try to see farming in that way, although it's really hard under the context with which I'm farming, to push for farming to be care work, but I really see it as a form of care work. Right before I started farming, I was in school to be a massage therapist, and then the pandemic happened, and I was like this school isn't doing anything to keep me safe, I'm out. But I'm definitely interested in healing touch, whether it's people, plants. Just care work in general, is a place that I see myself. I don't necessarily want to do it under capitalism,  I want capitalism to die totally. That's also care work.
