Mudbone Grown

When Shantae Johnson and Arthur Shavers embarked on their “Mudbone Grown” enterprise in 2015, they were doing more than building a farm from scratch, they were changing the narrative of what it means to be a Black farmer in Oregon, where exclusion was literally written into the state constitution. Each Tuesday is harvest and distribution day for NE Portland's Life Change Church’s elders. We follow this food from farm-to-table as it nourishes deep roots of faith and community.
