Roots of Resistance
We Farm, We Heal, We Remember
Our blog is more than a collection of posts—it’s a living library of remembrance and reclamation. Rooted in Black agrarian traditions and guided by the rhythm of the earth, we write to honor the ancestral knowledge that teaches us to grow our own food, make our own medicine, and live in right relationship with the land.Here you’ll find guides that make gardening, foraging, cooking, fermenting, and herbalism accessible to all—because food sovereignty begins at home.
Whether you’re tending a backyard plot or a windowsill herb garden, preserving tomatoes or learning to keep chickens, this space is for you. Our words are an offering. A nudge to live seasonally, nourish deeply, and reconnect with the earth beneath your feet.This is more than a blog. It’s a call back to the old ways, made new again.
