Hey Y'all. Happy new year!
I thought I might share this article of a sweet initiative that is growing from the decomposition and repurposing (and reappropriation) a large agaricus farm, including training the majority immigrant workers from the old farm, to form a cooperative exotics farm owned by seven Mexican and Guatemalan immigrant families. It's cool to see the previous workers taking ownership of the "means of production" with the hope of creating a better working environment and offer opportunities for others to grow and benefit together, rather than be exploited migrant labor. A hopeful story to inspire us with alternatives and possibilities to start the year.  A farm to keep on our radar to support in any way.
