Kloppenburg explains that the term “provides a bridge from thinking to doing, from theory to action” and implies a “commensal communit[y]” (34, 37). Similarly, the Freedom Farmers’ Market and the Freedom Farms established physical programs and/or spaces to build a community in order to take action against the racist governmental policies and social standards. In addition, Kloppenburg focuses on “increas[ing] the level of local and intra-regional food production, processing, and distribution,” which parallels the Freedom Farms’ emphasis on creating a self-sustaining local program and the Freedom Farmers’ Market’s encouragement of local produce cultivated by local Black farmers (38). This form of resistance works to fight global food enterprises, while providing economic support for local farmers and people. On the other hand, Kloppenburg discusses using “foodsheds” as a way to counteract environmental issues by “‘think[ing] like a mountain,” whereas the other two do not seem to focus on this topic
