Resilient Roots Community Farm

Sign up to volunteer with Resilient Roots Community Farm over in Camden this Spring! First open date is March 2nd

We are wrapping up the season with full, thankful hearts 🫀🍲💌 here is a love letter from the land. We can't wait to be back out there and share with you all some exciting developments. Til then...please enjoy these photos!

Pictured are:
1) our elder cô Phượng sharing and showing off her gourd-geous chayotes and chili's (photo courtesy of . Several community members got their own seeds from her for their growing spaces next year!

2) our community hangout at TrueLove Seeds, where we got to eat delicious food, watch live seedsaving, behold beautiful heritage beans, and connect over our food stories

3) chili oil made from leftover oxhorn peppers after seed saving! This was shared at the above hangout 🌶️

4) pumpkin soup made from our Viet pumpkins, also post seed saving (we love this part of seedsaving)

5) our bushes of Yellow California chili's, graciously shared with us by Cô Phượng and her family. These chili's are beloved by Latine and Viet communities in California, and those who have migrated to the east coast still recognize them and buy many of them from our elder when she sells at the SE Asian market at

6) tinctures ready to be gifted to our grower community made with love and grown with care at the farm! You might notice that there is papaya leaf 🌿 here: you can apparently still grow papaya, a potent medicinal plant, up here in our colder zone. You just wouldn't get fruit, but they're beautiful plants! Our elder Cô Tuyết grew a stand of them on her plot this year

We also made Bittermelon, tulsi, motherwort tinctures. There is a salve blend cold steeping that we will be processing later too!!
