THE GORGE — Thanks to support from agricultural and food companies Cargill and UNFI, National Minority Suppliers Development Council (NMSDC) announced an expanded 2024 Acres: Cultivating Equity in Black Agriculture
The 2017 Census of Agriculture reveals that Hood River County has only one Black farmer, underscoring the importance of this opportunity to cultivate a sense of community. The Acres Program seamlessly aligns with our mission to address disparities in the U.S. agricultural industry and establish a pathway for emerging black farmers, with a particular focus on youth.
