The group that leases the land off Outer College Street is the recipient of two grants totaling $80,000. That means the New Roots Cooperative Farm has obtained nearly $120,000 of its goal of $200,000 to complete the purchase.
“Having ownership changes everything for me and for the community I serve,” Jabril Abdi, one of the New Roots farmers, told the Sun Journal. “It’s really an amazing feeling that our kids have a chance to inherit a unique farmland right here. Nothing makes me happier.” ....

A $50,000 grant from the Elmina B. Sewall Foundation to the farm is part of the foundation’s emergency Twin Pandemic grant program, aimed at the disproportionate impact that COVID-19 and systemic racism have had on Maine’s communities, particularly Black, Indigenous and People of Color. ....
