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

RICHELLA ACOSTA

“I just feel so lucky being in farming and to have found this path that I didn't think I would go down. I feel my ancestors and my family, and every year, whenever I'm working outside with plants, I feel like my spirituality grows and I really get more grounded in this path that I'm on. I recognize that I'm really lucky in it. “
