Jillian Hishaw, Founder & Director of Family Agriculture Resource Management Services (F.A.R.M.S), was Interviewed by Shonna Etienne of Intellectual Chocolate, Sponsored by The Black Business School.

Special thanks to the Sponsor the Black Business School and Ms. Shonna Etienne, Real Estate Expert and Internet TV Host of Intellectual Chocolate for interviewing Jillian Hishaw about her work with Black farmers in the South!  The segment focused on land retention and estate planning challenges of landowners! 

Please take look at the interview. 

Small family farms have a tough go of it these days. Jillian Hishaw and her F.A.R.M.S. nonprofit help farmers in the Southeast hold onto their farms.

Ms. Jillian Hishaw, Esq. F.A.R.M.S., Founder, Director and Agricultural Attorney states “We need more young Black farmers, the median age of our farm clients is 75 years old.  Each time a Black farmer passes away or slowly leaves us while living due to dementia, we lose hundreds of years of history. I have found what the farmer knows at 85 was passed down five generations previously.” 

F.A.R.M.S., is a regional nonprofit dedicated to protecting the family farm against land loss through estate planning and education while relieving hunger in the farmer's community.  To keep up to date with Ms. Hishaw’s latest activities please visit www.jillianhishaw.com and to support F.A.R.M.S. work visit www.30000acres.org and sign up for our newsletter.  Please follow us on social media T: FARMS30000  Instagram: f.a.r.m.s  FB: F.A.R.M.S.
