Thank you, farmers, of the NEFOC Network, for participating in the 2026 Agriculture Impact Summit
We are deeply grateful to these amazing growers who joined us, shared their knowledge, and reminded us why this work matters:
Robert Peck of H**p Milk & Honey and Liberated Land Cooperative, a Black and Brown farmer-led group, led our hands-on mycology workshop and brought the grow tent, the grain spawn, and the magic.
Melissa Leuthner, owner of Apian Industry, brought the sweetness—literally—and showed how small-scale urban farming and beekeeping can build thriving businesses.
Nadia Muyeeb-Adewale and Omowale Adewale, co-owners of Liberation Farm, shared land stewardship and food sovereignty through their presence and voices.
Thank you for your time, expertise, and commitment to building a more just and sustainable food system. We are honored to work alongside you.
