Support
Land projects led by Black queer people are often underfunded, over-scrutinized, and expected to “do more with less.” We’re saying no to that logic.
We are building ...
(1) a Black-led agrarian cultural space that does not disappear after a grant cycle
(2) a teaching ground where queer cultural workers of color learn how to host their own programs on the land
(3) an ecosystem that can hold it all

What began as a personal experiment has become a communal need; a Black, queer-led farm project building generational infrastructure so that artists, growers, and cultural workers can live, make, and heal outside the extractive pace of the world. Here, the soil is as important as the studio, the watershed as vital as the imagination. Forest Fringe Farm is an ongoing commitment to building a gentler future where creativity feeds the land and the land feeds us back.
Forest Fringe Farm is made possible by the generous support of our community members, many individuals including Sara Arno and the Amy P. Goldman Foundation, as well as the Black Farmer Fund.
