We believe that empowered people take root by nourishing themselves through cultivating the Earth’s soils harmoniously with nature.
We aim to improve the quality of life of the RGV community by reconnecting people to the land and local food system. We strive to increase the accessibility and affordability of nutrient-dense sustainably grown food for communities in the Rio Grande Valley through education, food justice, conservation, sustainability, and research.
Regenerative Agriculture aims to cultivate by re-building the earth’s soils and ecosystems through diverse techniques such as composting, cover cropping, crop rotation, animal integration, pollinator incorporation, natural pest controls, and implemented biodiversity. Soil is the basis of life here on Earth, so when farmers practice regenerative agriculture, they nourish life from microorganisms to human beings.
Not everyone can be a farmer, but by consuming food products cultivated with regenerative farming practices, one is supporting the restoration of healthy life on Earth.
Shakera has been farming in the RGV organically for a decade, offering nutrient dense harvests through farmers market, CSA boxes, and on site harvesting to the community. Trained professionally as a nurse and a mother of 3, She prioritizes health, from one’s physical body to our community’s and started to cultivate the root of it all: food.
