Black Farmer Stories is a nonprofit production company that preserves the history, legacy, and agricultural knowledge of farmers and ranchers across the U.S. for the next generation.

Our vision is to preserve Black agricultural producers’ work primarily for them and their relatives, those living now and future generations.

With land loss shrinking Black property ownership to just the tiniest fraction of what African Americans once owned in the early 20th century, families need records of how and why their ancestors and kinfolk worked the land; what they grew and produced on it; how they lived and loved on it; and most importantly, how and why they held onto it.

Join us in our work of continuing our investment in storytelling and amplifying these important stories for generations to come.
