  • Summary

  • Kelsha Weaver is a retired Army Major with over 24 years of service in the Medical Service Corps and a Doctor of Business Administration candidate at the University of Phoenix. Alongside her husband, a retired Command Sergeant Major, she runs a small farm in South Georgia, purchased in 2013 as part of their retirement plan. Kelsha, originally from Southern Louisiana, is a novice Black farmer whose passion for Black Agrarianism stems from her journey and experiences with systemic challenges in agriculture.

    Her doctoral research focuses on the struggles of Black women in land procurement, with inspiration drawn from her path and the transformative policies of Section 22007 of the Inflation Reduction Act.

    We discuss the systemic and historical barriers experienced by black farmers.
