Fountain Heights Farms Cooperative (FHFC) is more than a farm. In a world where Black and Brown communities have been systematically stripped of land, resources, and access, we are reclaiming what is ours.
We grow food because our people need to eat. We create opportunities for connection and growth. We hold onto land to preserve our history. And it’s all community-led because we know what we need, and we build solutions that work for us.
FHFC started the way a lot of things do—by necessity. Our founders Dominique and Chris weren’t looking to start a movement; they were looking to cut down their grocery bill and save for their first home. So they did what our people have always done: turned to the land.
They planted a front-yard garden in their fixer-upper and made sure their family ate. But when neighbors started stopping by, asking about the farm, they realized this wasn’t just about them.
From one plot, we’ve grown to 11, and we’re not stopping. We need 119 farm plots to feed the whole neighborhood, create jobs, and build something that lasts. We know we’ll get there.
*Community Care Means Everybody Eats*
At FHFC, we believe in doing for each other.
If someone’s hungry, we feed them.
If someone’s curious, we teach them.
If someone has a skill, we lift them up.
That’s how community works.
We don’t need to wait on a system that wasn’t built for us. We already have what we need—land, knowledge, and each other.
This work is sacred. It’s about honoring our elders and nourishing our families, making sure we’re passing down something real.
When you come to this farm, you step into something bigger than a food system. You step into a legacy of resilience, resistance, and revival.
