SUMMARY: The Venture Farming Institute (VFI)
DESCRIPTION: The Venture Farming Institute (VFI) is a free intensive training experience for new and beginning farmers of color in CT and RI. This training will feature trainers of color while centering Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) voices and experiences on farming and land stewardship in CT and RI. VFI will strengthen the resilience and improve the likelihood of success of a growing community of BIPOC farmers in our region by giving them tools to thrive (new networks, equitable access to resources and financial support) and improving their ability to withstand disruption and setbacks (financial, weather-related, personal). This free cohort-based program will feature 72 hours of online training and 8 farm field days (CT and RI locations) for up to 20 participants.
