Our goal is to maintain local, organic, and accessible food security for our communities. This network is designed to support beginning farmers, low-income families, marginalized communities and aspiring farmers who may lack the resources, education and community support to cultivate their own produce.
I am a Black farmer living in Southern Oregon. I am creating this network in order to build culture and community around farming and food cultivation. I started as a cannabis farmer in 2013 then I transitioned to growing vegetables in 2019. I graduated from the Regenerative Farming Fellowship 7-month course with Rouge Farm Corps in October of 2023.

My major goal is to eliminate food deserts in urban areas by creating community systems of self-sufficient food production.
I offer garden consultations where I will examine your garden space and create an assessment of the potential of your space to maximize food production curated by regenerative, sustainable, and organic farming principals.
