our Purpose

Our purpose is to empower individuals and communities through sustainable agriculture, education, and resource development while honoring the legacy of Black American sugarcane farmers and preserving the enduring traditions of American farming for a thriving and self-reliant future.

Our goal is to build a prosperous and inclusive farming community that celebrates culture, restores ecological balance, and strengthens the economic foundation of South Louisiana. Through education, advocacy, and collaboration, we are dedicated to ensuring farming becomes a pathway to opportunity, unity, and empowerment for all.

Together, we strive to enhance the quality of life for our neighbors, inspire the next generation of growers, and transform our agricultural heritage into a catalyst for progress and shared success.
