Hamer explained. Using the contacts she had developed in Madison, Mrs. Hamer raised enough money to buy land in Sunflower County. She worked tirelessly to develop the Freedom Farm Cooperative.
But even at that price, only 30 families could afford membership dues; another 1, families belonged to the Freedom Farm in name.
The co-op planted cash crops like soybeans and cotton to pay taxes and administrative expenses. The rest of the land was sowed with vegetables, like cucumbers, peas, beans, squash, and collard greens, all of which was distributed back to those who worked on the co-op. Unlike many federal and local poverty programs, the Freedom Farm was dedicated to grassroots participation. Are you a vendor? Start here. Build Your Vendor Team. Wedding Website.
