Shemariah found Land For Good when she and her husband were beginning their own land search in New England. She consulted with Kathy for several years while managing New Lands Farm – an immigrant and refugee agricultural program in Massachusetts – to identify and secure farmland for individuals and a community site. Planning for agriculture and the extreme land access needs for future farmers were a focus of her graduate studies at UMass Amherst. Beyond her LFG work, Shemariah raises a young crew of humans, various poultry and tries to keep up with other land based projects.
