We went on a trip up to the New Roots farm in Kent. This farm provides refugees and immigrants from many different diverse backgrounds a chance to not only grow culturally relevant foods but also a chance to turn it into a source of income and support for their community. Most of the crops grown on this land are sold by the farmers themselves or by the New Roots farm market stand at the Tukwila farmers’ market. This nonprofit uses resources from the USDA and grants from other agricultural agencies in local and federal government. These resources are given directly to the farmers who work the land. We saw different techniques of trellising and intercropping at this farm. I saw many different types of vegetables and fruits from all over the world. This farm and its related markets are a great example of how the process of cultivation of cultural foods can be put back into the hands of those who need it the most. This visit also opened my eyes to how specific I can get with a job in agriculture. I now know that id love a job that assists or runs organizations like New Roots.
