Land, Food, Faith
Integrating the human spirit with local ecology begins with the lands we inhabit and the food we eat.
Eating is a spiritual act, connecting us to the earth and the Divine. We can help you engage your local food systems in ways that build equity, justice, and resilience throughout your community.
Additionally, we stand ready with years of expertise and experience to assist community land owners to imagine, explore, decide, and implement new ways of inhabiting their land that bring about ecological and spiritual renewal—for the land and the community. Maybe it is using that land for conservation and ecological restoration. Maybe it is using it to produce food for your local food system. Maybe it is helping build equity in the community. We can work with you through all phases, from dreaming to development to implementation.
We help faith communities connect soil and soul.

Heal land & spirits
Faith communities, and their individual members, own thousands of acres in the Chesapeake watershed. We have amazing opportunities to heal the ecosystems we inhabit, and to integrate that work into the spiritual life of our communities.

Reclaim the spirituality of food
The industrial food system has severed our umbilical cord to the earth. Our ancient tradition connects food to the spiritual well-being of a community. Let’s change the conversation and share this good news.
