The Prison Agriculture Lab is a collaborative space for inquiry and action that focuses on agriculture in the criminal punishment system. Our research and advocacy focus on place, power, inequality, and resistance. We are informed by scholarship, art, and activism that challenges racial capitalism and advances food justice and abolition.
The Prison Agriculture Lab supports and works with other researchers and students with a range of interests and methodological skills to trace the social and ecological reach of the agricarceral industrial complex. We also provide a platform to connect with members of the public who share our commitments and passions.
We work to articulate research silences, share data and findings, and support transformations.
