New Community Farm/Garden in Jackson, MS

The Tougaloo Community Farm/ Garden - 5 acres. 

The first planting will be in a week.  Started by the Peoples Assembly, The Tougaloo Community Civic League, The St. James Bethal Church, Tougaloo College and the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement

MXGM understands that the collective institutions of white-supremacy, patriarchy and capitalism have been at the root of our people’s oppression. We also understand that without community control and without the power to determine our own lives, we will continue to fall victim to genocide.

    Good Day,
                   I have plans to move to the Jackson, MS. area sometime in the early spring of next year, and I’m looking for a Community Garden Project that I can join, and share the information and skills that I have both in growing and helping find funding for the program. I am able to do Federal and State funding procurements, for many Nonprofits, and Churches, and I would truly love to learn more about the Community Farm that you have started there.  I do have some ideas that I think would be very helpful for everyone concerned, and looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks for your time, and I’m most appreciative of it.

                                                  Respectfully,      David
