Creating just pathways to agriculture
Our Goals
Cultivating Justice is a youth-led organization meeting community-identified needs around food security, land access, environmental justice, civic engagement, power building, and pathways towards agriculture for people underrepresented in Connecticut's farming community. Our goal is to nurture Connecticut's next generation of farmers of color.

This summer, we'll start our newest EggUcation Series,
"How to be a Farmer"!
Women and BIPOC participants will learn the ins and outs of becoming a farmer in CT; get all the support and resources they need to make their own compost; and start down the pathway towards agriculture!
Every dollar you can offer has more than double the impact thanks to our partners at Sustainable CT.
