Aminah Haghighi of Raining Gold on Women & BIPOC in Agriculture

This week, I speak with Aminah Haghighi, founder of Raining Gold, a farm in Prince Edward County Ontario that is disrupting the agriculture industry. In our discussion, we chat about how she stumbled upon this career path, how she figured out making the leap from gardening hobbyist to full on farm owner, why we need to challenge the image of Old MacDonald the farmer, how agriculture intersects with sustainability, food security, racism and misogyny, why we need to look at and challenge our bigger food systems to affect meaningful change, and how she’s making Raining Gold a place to share generational and community wealth.
