Hurricane Matthew destroyed the farmlands, livestocks and seed bank. We haven't been able to replenish. Our goal is to start to save indigenous seeds again.

Medicinal Plant Workshop

Intergenerational Learning

The Anba MòN farmers live in an ecosystem that is plant based.

We've partnered up with Doctor Berthony Jean Charles, an herbalist to do intergenerational workshop with the farmers and the children.

The objective is to identify medicinal plant in their own garden to use for their health and vitality.

BLACK WOMEN'S BLUEPRINT

APAM stands for Assosyason Peyizan Anba MòN. It is a grassroots organization that was birthed after Hurricane Mathew devasted Haiti. We are based in Brooklyn, NY, but our initiatives and members exist in the surrounding areas of the Southern Eastern part of Haiti in Jacmel.

APAM is a collective of one-hundred-two (102) families organized in the South East of Haiti around issues of education, farming, agriculture, biodiversity, health, and self-empowerment through a self-sustaining lens. We seek to empower, uplift, and ultimately to liberate the most marginalized members of the Anba MòN rural community—including and especially those who are, elderly, disabled, cash poor, women and children in the countryside. APAM focuses on community inter-dependence through member independence and accountability. We seek advanced training in agricultural and agroforestry; animal rearing, and building an equitable future, education and direct action.
