ECOSANKOFA GA

❛❛Our mission is to nourish South Fulton through regenerative agriculture, innovative homegrown housing solutions, and nature-based healing experiences. We empower frontline communities to cultivate self-sufficiency, grow collective resilience, and restore their well-being.❞

Our vision is to cultivate a closed-loop urban farm through intentional community that provides organic, regenerative food for South Fulton while serving as a living lab for education, healing, and sustainability. We empower people of all ages to reconnect with the land through accessible hands-on learning, community-driven housing initiatives, and Traditional Ecological Knowledge that fosters self-sufficiency. Through workshops and restorative experiences rooted in nature, we promote mental wellness, address the impacts of trauma, and create opportunities for individuals and families to heal, thrive, and build a stronger, more resilient community.

EcoSankofa GA developed from a lifelong homestead dream to a community urban farm refuge, as Tanesha - working as an emergency RN in Georgia’s Level 1 Trauma center - bore witness to the socioeconomic disparities plaguing South Fulton county; from food deserts to gun violence. Using a USDA Beginning Farmer’s loan program, 12 acres were acquired in January of 2026.
