We are an impact-driven wellness production family whose essence of labor seeks to enhance and inspire lives in our community to reconnect with the land, prioritize wholistic wellbeing, embrace fellowship, and build intergenerational wealth through preserving and practicing black southern culture.

We seek to create a self-determined community and sustainable local food system that is grounded in principles of equitable justice. We collectively concentrate on sharing necessary generational and cultural life skillsets of regenerative urban agriculture, nutrition, herbalism, culinary, seed saving, food preservation, food service, and artisan craftwork with a community that values fellowship, collective work, mutual support, and environmental stewardship.

We envision a community that prioritizes an inclusive and welcoming environment that empowers all members to participate and collaborate towards achieving common goals of positive individual, social, and environmental change.
