Honoring Heritage, Empowering the Future.


The 2024 Black Farmers Conference was a powerful celebration of resilience, growth, and community—a true reflection of the spirit that drives Creation of Society. This event served as a sacred gathering where Black farmers, stewards of the land, came together to share their stories, exchange knowledge, and build collective strength for the future. Each farmer present was not only showcasing their work but also embodying the rich legacy of our ancestors who saw agriculture as a cornerstone of survival, healing, and liberation.


Rooted in our principles of health, wealth, wisdom, and food justice, the conference was more than a platform for individual success—it was a call to action for collective empowerment. In an era where community-operated solutions are key to thriving futures, this gathering emphasized the importance of mentorship, generational knowledge transfer, and food sovereignty. By nurturing relationships between elder farmers and the youth, we ensure that the legacy of Black farming continues to grow and evolve, grounded in ancestral wisdom and sustainable practices.


As we look to the future, Creation of Society is committed to curating more exclusive conferences, designed to deepen connections, amplify voices, and strengthen the bonds within our community. These intimate gatherings will allow for deeper reflection, strategic planning, and action, creating spaces where the voices of those deeply embedded in the land can be truly heard and celebrated. By keeping these events exclusive, we can ensure that they remain focused, intentional, and aligned with the core values that guide our journey.


In addition, we are excited to introduce quarterly reflection sessions or regional conferences across California, designed to bring our community together in different regions of the state. These gatherings will offer an opportunity to reflect on progress, share insights, and co-create solutions that address the unique agricultural challenges of each region. Through these consistent touchpoints, we can ensure that our movement remains strong, adaptive, and grounded in our shared commitment to health, wealth, wisdom, and food justice.


As we reflect on the connections made, the wisdom shared, and the seeds planted at the 2024 Black Farmers Conference, let us continue to uplift each other. Together, we can forge a future that honors our past, embraces innovation, and secures the food justice and sovereignty our communities deserve. The journey ahead is bright, as we sow the seeds of health, wealth, and wisdom for generations to come.
