“...we founded the Feminist Farmers in Brände Udde: an economic association that aims to pursue questions of gender, food, autonomy and community resilience. Our urban farming collective is based around integrating social and ecological issues. We stand for decolonial practices and intersectional perspectives on sustainability and recognize the importance of recognizing biodiversity in ourselves as well as the ecologies we live with.

We’ve grown over the years and now sell vegetables to a hyper-local restaurant that is completely organic and seasonally based, hold events and workshops, vegetable picking events and speak at public events in town. We’ve also catered events, from Christmas dinners to Halloween Mocktail nights at our local movie theatre. Because of our artistic background, we invite many different groups to come and explore what the future of farming can look and feel like, how it can be integrated into the community and be used as a practice to create stronger social relationships.”



The project was founded by me and three fellow design students at Linnæus University Växjö in 2018. Leah Ireland, Karen Cort Nielsen, Laura Fähndrich and later joined by Rasmus Coris. Photos from various collaborators: Hubert Gaca, Rasmus Coris, Leah Ireland and more.
