WeABL is hosted in collaboration with Black-led organizations across the Black Agricultural Ecosystem and reflects a shared commitment to land access, food sovereignty, cultural continuity, and collective well-being.

WeABL (We Activate Black Lands) is a month-long, Black-led land tending and community activation series honoring Black History Month through embodied action on the land. Across four Saturdays in February, community members are invited to show up in relationship with Black-led farms and land projects — to tend soil, plant trees, build infrastructure, share stories, and activate living histories of Black land stewardship, resilience, and futurity. Rather than observing Black History Month through abstraction alone, WeABL calls us into relationship, repair, and responsibility — grounding history in the land itself. This series is hosted in collaboration with Black-led organizations across the Black Agricultural Ecosystem and reflects a shared commitment to land access, food sovereignty, and collective care.
