Abstract: We give a lower bound for the size of a subset of $mathbb{F}_q^n$ containing a rich k-plane in every direction, a k-plane Furstenberg set. The chief novelty of our method is that we use arguments on non-reduced subschemes and flat families to derive combinatorial facts about incidences between points and k-planes in space.
