The Collaborative Incubator at Forge Project will be developed by Sky High Farm in consultation with current and future partner farmers, seed savers, educators, and organizers rooted in Indigenous, Black, and migrant communities. This program will address gaps in existing resources by providing space and support for land and agricultural work in participants’ communities.
The first phase of development will include Sky High cultivating relationships, conducting needs assessment, defining goals and metrics, and establishing structure. Throughout its duration, Sky High will work with Bread On Earth as a volunteer land steward to grow heritage grains on the property, serving the dual ends of providing nutritious non-perishable food for the farm’s Community Food Access Program, and preparing the soil for future growers.
