Tomatoes, cucumbers, peas, sweet corn, bush beans, pinto beans, and watermelon.
Read the blueprints for growing plants from seeds provided by Soul Fire Farm, an Afro-Indigenous centered community farm and training center dedicated to uprooting racism and seeding sovereignty in the food system. As part of Soul Fire Farm’s multimedia installation within after school, visitors are encouraged to learn more about culturally significant agriculture by taking seeds for tomatoes, cucumbers, peas, sweet corn, bush and pinto beans, and watermelon from Soul Fire Farm home with them.
Soul Fire Farms teaches organic planting techniques and offers an ever-growing resource library tracing ancestral heritage, including regenerative agroecology to raise and distribute life-giving food. Whether you claimed a seed within the exhibition or a variety of these crops elsewhere, these instructions are intended to be saved and shared to equip the rising generation of BIPOC farmers and mobilize communities to work toward food and land sovereignty.
