“The Air BnB of Permaculture Impact Centers”
Land RESTORATION
Each of the communities below is in their own search for donors and investors to advance the values of peace, people, and planet first. Our community has also held conscious gatherings and music festivals at each location. In the future, we envision a Culture & Land Cooperative that connects these communities and facilitates best practice for permaculture, regenerative agriculture, food production, eco-tourism, and holistic health service and education. Each of these projects has been reviewed by someone on the We Are Mother Earth team and determined to share our values and vision.* Business plans and financial projections are available upon request.

The Recovery Farm @ RickeyFarm Vernon, NJ
The Recovery Farm is based on a model of healing the individual, community, culture, and planet.

This will be done through the planting of many trees as a part of the “Memorial Orchard” as well as by creating a 24/7 assistance hub for folks who need immediate temporary assistance and healing informed by tried and true indigenous practices.
