Black List

The mission of Black Soil: Our Better Nature is to reconnect Black Kentuckians to their legacy and heritage in agriculture. Representing 1.4% of the primary farm operators in the state, Black farmers account for less than 600 of the more than 76,000 agricultural operations in Kentucky. 

​

By bringing together urban families with rural and urban based Black farmers, growers, and producers across the state, we help introduce opportunities in agriculture that promote self-sufficiency, encourage healthy living, and activate cooperative economics. Their vision is to help foster a greater market share for Black farmers and producers as they provide healthy food options to a larger consumer base.
