About LEAFF:
LEAFF partner organizations represent farmers, hunger relief efforts and food distribution. LEAFF partners recognize that our food system was built through the systemic oppression of Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) communities, farmers and consumers, and continues to be inequitable.
LEAFF Provides resources and support to BIPOC farmers to ensure COVID-19 does not create additional barriers to success and provides connections to new wholesale markets and technology for longer-stem sustainability.
