The Art in Farming is a project that fosters the collaboration between local artists and local farmers to celebrate the importance, joy, struggles, and rewards of sustainable agriculture, specifically in Southern Louisiana. Small-scale, sustainable growers provide the market products that are celebrated at farmers markets, but these farmers are often the least supported by the existing ag system. These growers invest a tremendous amount of time, effort, and passion into their trade, and our goal is to elevate their practices and celebrate their livelihood. By pairing farmers with local artists, we can give the farmers a new voice and a new connection to the community, while also giving local artists a distinct medium and story to tell.
