Today we’re giving to @blackvisions and @aclu_nationwide. We’re taking a break from posting our usual content to listen, give space for Black voices to be heard, and continuing to find meaningful ways to act, including charting a path forward that works to dismantle racial inequities in the food system of which we are a part.

Now more than ever, we recognize organic farmers' critical role in the movement for change, so, even as we hunker down in separation from one another, let's learn from our farmers' active resiliency and do everything that we can to support a global future of agriculture that heals rather than harms.
