How we're making a difference
Black Joy Farm
Black Joy Oregon is currently working on a project focused on food sovereignty, called Black Joy Farm. We have a community garden located in Keizer, OR. The farm is maintained by Black Joy Oregon members and our wonderful volunteers! All of our produce goes out to community, primarily BIPOC households! As of the beginning of September 2024 we have harvested over 1,000lbs in total - for our first ever season!! Sign Up to volunteer with us or donate to help support our efforts!
We will soon be implementing an Urban Gardening program as a branch of our Black Joy Farm project, where we will be providing indoor gardening systems to BIPOC households.
Stay tuned for more info!
