🗓️Month 7️⃣ treated me right!

Went to Niagara Falls for 4th of July weekend…

…just to turn round and go to NYC for a day trip. Finally had my bowl from @ramenbyra

Then, my first @wineandculturefest Fest!

I started my new job the following week

Ate well—drank well; definitely check out @almacocinalatina if you can! Fave bottles this month go to @zafawines, @hedonstate, and @brownestate

And finished a crochet project

Wine’s gotta be for everyone, not just a fancy drink for privileged folks. If we want the wine industry to keep growing in the US, we need more diversity in the wine game. Let’s make it by everyone, for everyone. That being said, here are 3 badass Black winemakers to look out for and support. Got any Black winemakers you love? Sharing is caring so drop them in the comments!

Introducing my passion project turned Twilight Project, Climate Action Project, and Senior thesis all in one. Black Vermont Farming is born out of an appreciation and curiosity for Black people in the diaspora that work with land. With various frameworks in mind, my project examines the legacy of Black environmentalists, the history of Black land ownership in the United States, and the local Black farmers that continue to do the work here in Vermont. The zine details the ways in which, In Vermont in particular, Black Burundese, Haitian, Senegalese, Yoruban, New England, Southern, and so many more traditions influence the way we grow, eat, and tell stories about food. These Vermont farmers all utilitize food sovereignty, afroindigenous regenerative agriculture, and community oriented earth work in diverse ways to nourish deeper roots than before, restoring moisture, nutrients, connection, and meaning back to the land.

Read the full zine (78 Pages) in my Linkedtree.
