The 40-Acre Cooperative is a Minnesota-based and farmer owned cooperative focusing on bringing equity and innovation to Black, Indigenous and other socially disadvantaged farmers. The co-op provides training, supplies and leadership specifically focusing on resource gaps with its members.

40-Acres spent years researching phenotypes and testing strains to develop new hemp genetics. Their strain, Wunder x Woman, is now one of the top tier hemp varietals today. The co-op also teaches members the basics of sustainable farming to help regenerate the soil and reduce climate damage.

They now have 34 active members in several states and two tribal territories actively receiving support and training from the co-op. There's now a wait list of over 300 people.
