We are BIPOC farmers growing for our collective liberation.

Food sovereignty and self determination are foundational for liberation. Our farm was birthed holding these principles forefront with a vision of healing our bodies, the land, and our communities through practices of reciprocity with all that surrounds us. As stewards of this piece of land - originally inhabited by Occaneechi guardians - we are building health and wealth in our community.

Through our farming practices, workshops, and events we honor our traditional teachings and ceremonies from our ancestors. Hawk’s Nest Healing Gardens is a safe space for community dialogue and conversations about our needs, concerns, hopes and dreams in working towards social and environmental justice.

Learn about Urban Farming - Schedule a Farm Tour!

1 hour long tour of our organic, urban farm. Learn how we: built the composting toilet, used the trees from the land for lumber, move the chickens in a mobile coop, built the medicine garden as a compass, use a no-till system and other indigenous ways of growing food. See the high tunnel, the bees, the pollinator gardens. Go home with some farm fresh goodies!
