Oregon’s Farm and Ranch Equity and Anti-Racism Program (O-FREAP) is an opportunity to learn about, address, and dismantle racism within the food and farm systems and beyond. Farming and ranching in Oregon and throughout the U.S. was established through oppressive systems including racial exclusion, land theft,
and violence. Some of these systems still exist and cause harm. There are changes that can be made on the individual and systems level; this program lays a foundation for the skills, knowledge, and networks needed to take action. We invite you to join a self-paced online curriculum with the opportunity to connect with others through peer learning. Once registered you will be contacted by Teagan Moran and invited to optional discussion groups. You can now register and access the free Equity and Anti-Racism Curriculum, link here: https://beav.es/wio. This program was curated by resolution lab (https://www.resolutionlab.org/our-collective), a Black, Indigenous, People of Color-owned firm, with sponsorship from a collaborative of farmer and rancher service providers including: OSU Extension Services Small Farms Program, Rogue Farm Corps, EcoTrust, Friends of Family Farmers, and the Oregon Community Food System Network’s Farming for the Future Working Group. We believe that we are collectively responsible for fixing and redesigning harmful systems of oppression. Working together as a professional network helps ensure that the needs of farmers and ranchers are addressed across the state, that diverse perspectives are represented, and that resources are available to all.
