Summary

Ujima Jam Sessions (subscribepage.com) are farmer-focused engagements that are virtual or in-person and focused on: sharing information (guest speakers), sharing resources, learning together, and helping each other out on our farms (think all-hands work days, with refreshments and/or on-farm demos from experts).

Launched in 2022 as peer learning circles to better meet the needs of Black and other underserved beginning farmers in Future Harvest's Beginning Farmer Training Program, Ujima Jams are now a farmer-led initiative supported by www.ourspaceworld.org.

Come join us at OlaLekan Farm for garlic planting and winter organizing!

OlaLekan Farm is a diversified vegetable and education farm in Upper Marlboro,MD. Our mission is to heal the soil, elevate awareness surrounding food sovereignty, and empower beginning farmers and land stewards. 

Named in honor of Farmer Tolu’s maternal grandparents: Lalekan and Olabisi, the Yoruba names together affirm the addition of honor, joy and wealth will occur for all who become a part of this community.
