News summary

In Dunbarton, New Hampshire, a farm run by the Organization for Refugee and Immigrant Success serves as a lifeline for refugees from African nations, including Burundi, Rwanda, Somalia, and Congo. These farmers, many of whom had agricultural backgrounds in their home countries, cultivate both American staples and traditional crops, creating small businesses that provide income and a connection to their roots. Khadija Aliow, a Somali refugee, expressed her happiness, stating, 'I like it in the USA. I have my own job.' The nonprofit offers training and land for farming, fostering community integration and participation in the American dream. Overall, 36 farmers from five African countries and Nepal are involved, reflecting a model that is still relatively rare in the U.S.
