OUR VISION

Now more than ever our world needs communities of individuals working to build a vibrant future steeped in the values of Access - Liberation - Creativity - Regeneration - Culture & Intergenerational Living!

As we enter a new stage as an organization, we at Philadelphia Community Farm fill the need for values based community, by putting ours into action. Our future is one that is steeped in diversity, with transparency as our guide.

Throughout 2019-2023 we have been engaging in a leadership shift by co-creating a circle leadership model in action, with farm residents, extended community members, and our Board of Directors.

Restoring health and vitality to people, plants, animals and the Earth has led this organization for over 30 years.

And, health and vitality are not only the absence of disease, but the integration of a Whole Systems Network of practices; focused on balancing the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual components of individuals, families, and communities. 

We believe in a four folding of economics, culture, land, and access. Through this lens it is possible, and imperative to reimagine conservation as a Whole Systems Network of practices with community at the center.

Together, we put the focus on:

• Soil health in agriculture as a key element of land conservation.

• Diversifying cultural practices on land.

• Developing financially responsible enterprises.

• Providing marginalized communities with access to wild & cultivated spaces.

Whether through our Agricultural, Educational, Life-Sharing, or Conservation programming, we are excited to infuse our next chapter with vibrancy and dynamic growth.

We see it as our task to co-create an environment that fosters liberation; supporting the next generation of Seed-Keepers, Environmental Stewards and Culture-Bearers.
