Soul Fire Farm is a community farm committed to ending racism and injustice in the food system. We use Afro-indigenous agroforestry, silvopasture, wildcrafting, polyculture, and spiritual farming practices to regenerate 80 acres of mountainside land, producing fruits, plant medicine, pasture-raised livestock, honey, mushrooms, vegetables, and preserves for community provisioning, with the majority of the harvest provided to people living under food apartheid and targeted by state violence in our local community. We are a resource for education in ancestral farming practices, and collaborate with the land to support our communities in healing from racial trauma and imagining bolder futures.

These community farm days allow participants to learn about some of our farming practices while supporting our work and getting your hands on the land, Tuesdays from 10:00 am – 3:30 pm.
