LET’S GROW TOGETHER!

Welcome to the Lil Urban Farm, a small urban farm space in zone 7B/8A on the South Carolina/North Carolina border. 

Lil Urban Farm’s mission is to make gardening and homesteading information accessible and easy to understand for anyone who desires to grow their own food, while tapping into sustainable ideas around permaculture, food forests, and regenerative, small-scale farming. 

I believe we all deserve to have more local, healthy, and homegrown abundance in our backyards and local communities. Not only is it good for our health, our families’ health, and our communities’ health, but it’s also good for the overall health and nurturing of our planet.

LIL URBAN FARM'S VISION IS TO CREATE A WORLD WHERE EVERYONE HAS ACCESS TO GROW HEALTHY FOOD. 

My mission is to help combat hunger, food insecurity, and certain chronic health issues that may be avoided through a more nutritious, plant-focused diet, while creating a space where we can learn, share, and grow together as a community. My aim is to make information accessible, easy-to-understand, and attainable for as many people as possible, with the focus of teaching the basics of gardening, homesteading, raising chickens, and what I call “micro-farming.”
