In 2021, SCLT will be offering increasing support for local farmers, expanding access to farmland and improving our ability to distribute healthy food, particularly in local Black and Brown communities.
Southside Community Land Trust is offering 6-week summer jobs in both Providence and Pawtucket from early July to mid-August.
Construction started in mid-October at 404 Broad Street in Providence, with plans to move into the facility in July, 2021.

Soon, she began growing the vegetables she and her family were used to eating in Nepal, and before that, Bhutan, as well as socializing and networking with refugees from three continents.
