We are a Black owned, multi-generational, multi-cultural, multi-racial sustainable family farm.
In 2017, a family decided to grow their own food and flowers, poultry and eggs by stewarding land that historically belonged to the Native American Cayuga Nation. In reflecting and honoring the life, work, and farming principles of our ancestors we created a Black-owned, family-operated farm in upstate New York.
