It is during these times that we need to enhance our networks, build even greater solidarity & synergy and forge a clearer vision of the road ahead. With these movement building practices in mind, I share the following message about our 2025 Organic Seed Growers Conference that nourishes our work around seed justice as a foundation to food and agriculture justice.
Furthermore, we recognize that our country’s fundamental contradiction of injustice is based upon stolen land from Indigenous peoples and stolen labor from African peoples to do agriculture and food ways. So, this weaving together of land, seeds, food and agriculture represents the fulcrum point for deeper and more profound social transformation.
So, as weavers, we invite your participation, solidarity and visions for our justice-filled future as we convene around the theme: “Weaving Visions of Organic Seed Communities”.
JIM EMBRY very blessed that I will be actively participating in co-presenting these three workshops:
1) Seed Cosmology of Indigenous and African Women & Our Vision of Being Good Ancestors
2) Global Seed Stories from Slow Food’s Terra Madre and the Ark of Taste
3) Local Seeds for Local Food: Strengthening Regional Seed Systems for Sustainable Communities.
