Farming in the Margins: Diasporic Preservation and Ecological Resilience
Farming in the Margins: Diasporic Preservation and Ecological Resilience brings together diasporic farmers, seedkeepers, land stewards, and food justice activists to explore how farming can preserve cultural knowledge and memory.
About the Participants:
Mandana Boushee: Bridging land, plants, and poetry, Mandana Boushee’s work weaves together the wisdom of ecology, community organizing, and the power of storytelling, drawing on two decades of experience as an earth worker, ethnobotanist, writer, educator, and community herbalist. Whether through her care work as an herbalist, her advocacy for farmers through the Northeast Farmers of Color Land Trust, or her poetry, the heart-mycelium feeding Mandana’s work remains clear: to connect, heal, and protect through the land and the stories that shape it.
Aliana Ruxin: Ali (she/her) stewards two farm sites with the Red Hook Farms team in Red Hook, Brooklyn, NY. A founding member of the Iraqi Seed Collective, she grows and shares Iraqi seeds and their stories with other Iraqi and SWANA heritage growers in diaspora. She also organizes with food, farm, and hospitality worker collective FIG NYC. Ali’s favorite thing to grow this year was ta’roozi, a crunchy, slightly sweet Iraqi cucumber.
Francis Yu: Francis Yu is a queer Asian-American farmer (Star Route Farm) and a food systems + land access practitioner (West Branch Commons). They have a background in urban planning and policy and currently serve as an Adjunct Professor at NYU Wagner School of Public Service teaching about the intersections of race, class, gender, and the history of public policy and segregation in our cities. They enjoy cooking, hiking and foraging, and developing a poetry and writing practice. Francis has roots in Manila, Philippines, and in occupied Patwin territory (Vallejo, California).
West Branch Commons (WBC) is dedicated to advancing equitable land access as a community land trust. At its core, WBC’s mission is to provide secure, affordable land access to marginalized farmers, using an agroecological approach that de-commodifies land and promotes long-term stewardship. It seeks to do so on 287 acres of farmland in Delancey, Delaware County, New York currently owned by American Farmland Trust. WBC works with constellation of resources to educate the public and farmer lessees on farm viability, regional collaboration, and intergenerational knowledge transfer.
Yemi Amu: Yemi Amu is the Founder and Director of Oko Urban Farms, Inc. In 2013 she established NYC’s first and only publicly accessible outdoor aquaponics farm – The Oko Farms Aquaponics Farm and Education Center. She directs all of Oko Farms’ programs including education, design/build projects and community related activities. Yemi is one of NYC’s leading aquaponics experts and is a committed educator. Over the past decade, she has facilitated the creation and maintenance of over 20 edible spaces throughout NYC; created and implemented various culinary, nutrition and gardening programs for both youth and adults; and promotes aquaponics as a tool for environmental awareness and stewardship. Yemi has a M.A. in Health and Nutrition Education from Teachers College, Columbia University. In 2021, Yemi became part of the inaugural cohort of the Dorchester Industries Experimental Design Lab created by Theaster Gates and Prada.
The Oko Table: Harvest Feast
Harvest Feast, the second of the series, is a celebration of the resilient spirit of urban agriculture. The menu has been carefully designed by Yemi Amu, our founder and director, who began her journey as a chef and food educator. It showcases the fresh produce from our aquaponics farm, including our ethically-raised carp. Each dish embodies the potential of urban farming to tackle rising food security issues and the ongoing climate crisis.
We invite you to The Oko Table, where you can savor the abundance of our aquaponics farm, appreciate the richness of urban agriculture, and be part of the movement to increase food security for New York City residents.
Purchasing With Purpose: A Values Based Community Workshop
Join the conversation shaping the future of New York’s food and agriculture—where insight sparks real policy action and lasting change.
This interactive workshop serves as a continuation of our recent values aligned purchasing roundtable with national leaders, focusing specifically on engaging New York practitioners in meaningful dialogue about advancing good food procurement practices. This session provides an invaluable opportunity for local practitioners to share their work, experiences, and challenges while developing actionable policy recommendations together.
Roots of Connection: D is for Delight + Despair
In a world that pulls us toward disconnection, we’re practicing how to return—to ourselves, to each other, and to the earth.
Whether you're just beginning to explore plants, or you’ve long moved with their medicine...
Whether your body feels distant or deeply known
This space meets you right where you are.
D is for Delight + Despair
We hold delight and despair as two threads of being alive, woven closely together. In this session, we’ll notice how both live in the body, what they reveal about what we hold dear, and how they shape our lives. We’ll spend time with plant allies that steady and nourish us in the presence of each, move through somatic practices that help us honor their truth, and reflect on how community makes it possible to carry joy and sorrow side by side without forcing ourselves to choose one over the other.
Each month, we explore two plant friends, one letter of the alphabet, one emotion, and one somatic practice to reconnect. From Acceptance to Zeal, we listen for the ways our bodies speak, and remember how plants have always connected us through feeling, healing, and change.
This isn’t about fixing or overcoming ourselves.
It’s about learning how to stay with what’s here, with a bit more curiosity and compassion.
Each gathering includes:
✨ one emotion as a guide
✨ plant allies to steady and nourish
✨ a somatic practice to rest, release, or reclaim
✨ a ritual or reflection to carry into your month
This space welcomes both new and experienced plant practitioners.
You don’t need to have it figured out.
Your body is welcome. Your questions are welcome.
Your healing—complex, layered, and real—is welcome.
We begin in August with the letter A for acceptance.
Together, we explore:
🌿 How does this emotion live in my body, and what might it be trying to teach me?
🌿 What plants have supported people through this feeling across time and place?
🌿 What can this plant teach me about being in right relationship—with myself, with others, and with the planet?
🌿 How can I respond with more connection, care, and choice?

Earthfishing: Cooking with Fire, Clay, and Fish
Join us for the second iteration of Earthfishing, a workshop in collaboration with sculptor and researcher Sasha Fishman, ceramicist Abby Regner, and Oko Farms. Together, we will wrap fish (harvested from Oko’s aquaponics system) in clay, sculpt them, and cook them over open flame. We will then share a meal by the ocean, marking an evening of material exploration, connection with the surrounding waters of New York, and a ceremonial honoring of the fish as they transition into a new form.
Note: A full meal and drinks are included in this event.
About the Facilitators
Sasha Fishman is a sculptor and researcher based in New York. Working with materials such as hagfish slime, algae, and cicada shells, Sasha’s work investigates marine biomaterial extraction, toxicology and genetic engineering as points for critical analysis and mechanisms for sculpting.

C is for Compassion
Compassion is the courage to stay tender in a world that tries to numb us. In this session, we explore compassion as both balm and boundary, noticing how it moves through the body and shapes connection. Plants guide us toward softening without collapse, openness without overwhelm. Together, we will share plant allies that nurture the heart, explore embodied practices, and reflect on how to extend compassion inward and outward.
Each month, we explore two plant friends, one letter of the alphabet, one emotion, and one somatic practice to reconnect. From Acceptance to Zeal, we listen for the ways our bodies speak, and remember how plants have always connected us through feeling, healing, and change.

B is for Burnout
Burnout is both a wound and a messenger, showing us where care is missing. In this session, we explore burnout as both personal and collective, noticing how it who we are to ourselves and each other..
