Culinary Heritage "Farm2Art2Table" Programs
at the Clemmons Family Farm

Picture
The Clemmons Family Farm is piloting new initiatives under our "Farm2Art2Table" programs that focus on African-American and African diaspora foods,  culinary heritage and arts.   The African diaspora covers the places around the world where the mass dispersion of people of African descent settled during the Transatlantic Slave Trades between the 1500s and the 1800s.  The African diaspora thus includes all countries in Africa, as well as the Americas (United States, Canada, South America) and the Caribbean, representing a wide and diverse array of cultures, foods, spices and cuisines!

We are pleased to announce "And Still I Rise"- a joint undertaking with Krista Scruggs of Zafa Wines to support a growing network of African-American/African diaspora farmers and culinary artists to bring Black culinary heritage-- food, beverages and traditions- to Vermont communities.  Read more about this exciting initiative here:

A CULINARY HERITAGE STORY BLOG:
CHEF OMAR VISITS THE CLEMMONS FAMILY FARM

Above: During a Cooking, Culture and Conversation class, Chef Omar Tate demonstrates the art of making delicious pie dough in the beautiful historic Barn House on the Clemmons Family Farm. While cooking together,  the small group of participants learn about the history and African-American cultural heritage of sweet potato pies. They also have fun learning about each other!
The Clemmons Family Farm's African-American/African diaspora culinary arts and heritage programs will offer cooking lessons, workshops, tasting demonstrations, cultural performances, and educational presentations featuring the wonderful diversity of African American and African diaspora cuisines and food histories.  As with all of our programs, our culinary heritage and arts programs are designed to foster opportunities for people to enjoy quality time together in small multicultural groups.  We carefully curate experiences that will help visitors to  learn about, commune around and celebrate African-American heritage-- and each other-- in a warm, fun and supportive environment focused on history, art and culture.   
In Fall 2019, we raised a new hoop house that will produce lemon grass, hibiscus for Jamaican sorrel, southern black eyed peas, African eggplant, okra, collard greens, ginger, turmeric, herbs, red peppers and other crops to provision our African-American/African diaspora culinary heritage programs.  Enjoy our "Hoop House Anthem (And Still I Rise) by hip hop artist Omega Jade!
