A full house, powerful ideas, and real community engagement. 🏫🙏🏿
Last Saturday, November 7th, our community filled The Black Schoolhouse for our very first Black Future Social Aid & Pleasure Club (BFSAPC) gathering. Together, across generations, we dug into the hard questions: mapping the issues impacting our neighborhoods, envisioning collective solutions, and planning the concrete steps we are taking next (more on that soon!).
From elders sharing wisdom to young people creating art, this is what grassroots power and self-determination look like in real time.
✊🏿Don't let the algorithm decide when you hear from us.

Regenerative Gardening & Farming Tips: The Art of Seed Saving 🌱🐝
True sustainability is circular. In The Black Schoolhouse Community Garden, we practice regenerative agriculture by working with nature’s rhythms rather than against them.
While common gardening advice often tells you to prune plant blooms immediately to force leafy foliage, letting them flower serves a vital dual purpose: feeding our local pollinators and producing viable seeds for future harvests. By collecting and storing these seeds, we close the loop—eliminating the need to purchase new starter plants while building self-reliant, generative food systems right here in the 7th Ward.
Watch as our Garden Manager @rishsafari breaks down how we harvest seeds from our blooming plants to keep the cycle going season after season.
Want to get your hands in the soil? Join us during our upcoming Black Love Saturdays programming and garden workdays to learn more about food sovereignty and community growing (link in bio).
Video Transcript
"Got bees here...
So, hi, I'm Rish, I'm the garden manager here at The Black School. I'm going to show you how we save seeds.
So typically, people will cut the blooms to encourage fuller plant growth, but here, we allow some of the blooms to flourish so the bees can be happy. And after they bloom, we receive seeds. We don't have to buy a whole new plant.
That is regenerative organic agriculture. These plants produce seeds, we collect them, and use them to regrow. That cycle happens over and over and over again."
