DMV Black Owned and Operated Farms
Pictured: Olaniyi Balogun, Dodo Farms
Rekindling this list of Black farmers and growers in the DMV region (with a focus on Maryland) in honor of Black History Month.
Almost a century ago, Black farmers made up 14% of America’s farmers. Today, they account for less than 2%.
Maryland Market Money is proud to support Black farmers and food producers.
We encourage you to use your dollars to do the same at markets, farm stands, and CSAs this month and every month.
