BROADFORK & Friends Collective

We are Broadfork & Friends, a unique collective of women, BIPOC, and LGBQTIA+ communities committed to fostering self-reliant and vibrant local systems. Our initiative involves cultivating and distributing fresh, local produce, flowers, and herbs, ensuring a sustainable food system while providing living wages and off-season funds. Moreover, we nurture creativity and skill-sharing by supporting the arts and educational opportunities, aiming to build a resilient and interconnected community.

Our vision is to establish bountiful gardens and mini-farms throughout the region. We aspire to empower others to do the same within their communities, collaborating on projects and distributing opportunities among our skilled members and teams. Through collective effort, we enhance each other's capabilities, promoting competence, authenticity, and creativity.

To achieve these goals, we embrace principles of sustainability, cooperation, and local currency initiatives, like the Quincy-based 'Querrency' system. We also engage in projects like bike-powered compost programs, zero waste events, and fostering local businesses and partnerships. Additionally, we offer diverse services, including farm sitting, art and design, consulting, and product branding, providing comprehensive support and creative solutions for our partners.
