RENEWed
CONNECTION
Fall shedding, in the context of regenerative agriculture, involves practices that prepare the soil and ecosystem for the coming seasons. This aligns with the concept of Fiṭrah, which refers to the natural disposition or intrinsic nature of humans and the environment. By integrating these practices, we not only prepare our gardens for the next growing season but also honor the natural order and our intrinsic connection to the environment.

Agroecology Outreach as a tool for…
Food Justice.
With a growing population, our food & water insecurities and waste have drastically increased. Many of us take for granted the readily available food and convenient resources without understanding where it originates from and how it benefits us. Nai’s Kitchen is a shared space for community members to come together to prepare, cook, package, and deliver meals to those in need. Nai’s Kitchen Food Recovery Kitchen is a service that delivers a delicious and free meal to community members experiencing food insecurity, including those in transitional or low-income housing.
Youth Enrichment.
As our youth look for opportunities to make an impact in the world around them, second chances are critical. We all face different obstacles and hurdles throughout life but our youth aren’t given space to make beginner mistakes, reflect on their actions and redeem themselves in a positive manner. Agroecology allows us to look at how society functions with the resources available and provides a method for holistic identification. We provide documented training hours in a variety of areas, stipends, letters of recommendations that can open pathways to careers.
Adult Enrichment.
As members of our community look for opportunities to reconnect. We all face different obstacles and hurdles throughout life. People’s mistakes don’t always define who they are. Agroecology allows us to look at how society functions with the resources available and provides a method for holistic living. The enrichment program’s mission is to offer skills and training for entrepreneurial opportunities, restorative deinstitutionalization and communal housing.
