Woven Roots Farm is a traditional, hand-scale vegetable farm, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program, and community center, committed to co-creating equitable pathways to becoming better caretakers of the earth and one another. Woven Roots Farm is a traditional, hand-scale vegetable farm, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program, and education center located on unceded Mohican land in the present-day southern Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts. Through a deep relationship with the land and one another, we commit to feeding, educating, and empowering our community members by co-creating equitable pathways to become healthier individuals, ethical growers, and caretakers of the earth and one another. Woven Roots Farm recognizes that agriculture itself is rooted in the long-standing cultural practices within communities of Indigenous people, people of color, and immigrants. We acknowledge that the US was built on stolen land and that all US systems are built on the stolen labor of Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian and other people of color. Located on unceded Mohican land, Woven Roots Farm agricultural practices are centered in the ancestral ways of acknowledging nature as a part of us just as much as we are a part of nature. We embrace these connections and seek to enhance them, not to disturb them. In direct opposition to colonized agriculture, we move through a space of reciprocity to put the needs of the people and the ecosystem as equal. Situated on 10 acres, our farm has just over 1 ⅓ acre in cultivation in a permanent bed, hand-scale, no-till farming system. This system is managed by a dynamic team of 7 farmers that grow over 70 different crops throughout the year.
