One of the many things Trella is up to when she's not supporting folks in their healing process...​

Phoenix Farm
Earth. Ancestors. Food. Art. Connection. Spirit.

Phoenix Farm is dedicated to nurturing a parcel of southcentral PA by conserving and re-establishing native edibles and tool materials, sustainably growing heirloom and chemical free produce, honoring the land, ancestors, stories that have been forgotten, and intentionally writing a sustainable future. We integrate agroforestry, market gardening, and a teaching farm model to hold space for healing, connecting, creativity, and repair.

We strive to create trauma informed safer space for folx, and particularly affirm Black, Indigenous, queer, neurodivergent, disabled, and Jewish family.  

The land at Phoenix Farm has been in the Dubetz family since 1928, and was unceded shared hunting grounds of eastern Algonquin, southern Haudenosaunee, northern Tsalagi, and migratory Shawnee first nation people. From what we can tell, the valley our farm is located in was most likely along a migratory route of the woodland buffalo, elk, and the many indigenous people that followed the buffalo seasonally. 

These 86acres cover meadow, stream, ridged woodland, and contains a huge spectrum of native edible and medicinal plants. 
​
As well, from October of 2019-October 2022, approximately 2700 plants have been put in the ground to be future food sources via a multi-use riparian buffer grant.  Some of these native species include, black raspberry, high bush blueberry, serviceberry, gooseberry, persimmon, quince, pawpaw, hickory, beechnut, chestnut, sugar maple, black locust, elderberry and more. 

**These plants are dedicated to the original people of this place,
​and all of our ancestors of yesterday, as well as those generations to come.**  ​
