Sankofa Means Go Back and Get It
Sankofa Community Orchard is our 6 acre food justice and climate resiliency demonstration farm in the heart of Southside Richmond. We farm regeneratively in the city with over 150 fruit trees, high tunnels and rain water harvesting systems.
We offer weekly opportunities for community to engage with our work. Dirt Therapy is held twice a week – Thursday and Saturday from 11-2pm. Feel free to visit with your family.
Self-Guided Tours
We all know time spent in the outdoors brings benefits that last a lifetime. Connecting with nature provides young people the opportunity to develop their innate curiosity and wisdom that helps the world turn as it should in a circle of give and take. This is the true meaning of stewardship.
During our open hours, come explore our murals, or take a moment for mindfulness in our urban forest.
