Heal the Earth | Heal the Soul
Soul & Soil Project envisions communities empowered and connected by locally-thriving and just food systems, embodying human creativity and cooperative systems reflecting Nature's principles of Reciprocity and Sustainability.
Our Food Sovereignty Way of Life
Our garden is where we practice what we learn from nature; exploring and embodying the principles and patterns of plants, elements, cycles... It is where we grow food and soil, collaborate with each other, connect, unwind, ground, and learn. We strive to contribute to the resilience of our local food system. We welcome those who wish to garden in radical grace.
Food sovereignty.
Healing.
Liberation.
We are co-creating a land-based demonstration and learning site for regenerative food systems, creative practice, and nonextractive local economies.
Nawaya Ancient Future Labs
We are partnering with Nawaya, LLC; a BIPOC-led regenerative real estate and community development enterprise focused on designing small-scale, values-aligned communities rooted in land stewardship, care, and cultural integrity. Nawaya develops place-based projects that integrate housing, food systems, creative enterprise, and cooperative economic models as practical alternatives to extractive development.
Through pilot sites, consulting, and community design work, Nawaya demonstrates how land and infrastructure can be stewarded in ways that support long-term resilience, economic dignity, and shared prosperity.
Our Fundraiser + New Beginnings!
After all of our hard, nomadic work in service to people and planet for the past seven years, we are THRILLED to find a permanent home for our intersectional organization! Located near Cherokee, NC, we are teaming up with Nawaya (a BIPOC-led, village-making company) on their newly acquired land. This will be the new headquarters site for Soul & Soil Project as we break ground in this exciting new chapter, with plans to create five income earning positions, and several projects to help build, grow, and maintain said positions and our nonprofit as a whole.
Nawaya is an ideal partner, as they are committed to the empowerment, healing, and legacy of people of culture and the next generations. Here, together, we are growing a brighter future!
