About

Built on legacy. Growth with love. Rooted in us.

At Jessie My Love Foundation, we’re building something rare: a sanctuary where land, livelihood, and liberation come together to support Black and Indigenous women and their families.

We are a non-profit organization creating regenerative farms that serve as community anchors, combining rent-free housing, dignified work, and restorative support under one vision. Each site will host up to 50 families in custom-built tiny homes, surrounded by working farmland and rooted in care, rhythm, and renewal.

Participants will be selected through a thoughtful application process led by a peer review committee. Successful applicants will be enrolled in paid apprenticeships on our farms and welcomed to stay for up to three years. Families are part of the vision, not an afterthought. That’s why each site includes access to childcare, education, fresh produce, healing resources, and transitional planning beyond the program.

While we're currently pursuing 50 acres of farmland in Ontario as our first site, this is a national movement with a long view: to bring life and opportunity back to overlooked farm towns across the country. Every farm will be a place where economic independence, ecological stewardship, and community wellness are not luxuries, they’re the starting point.

Through our farming operations, we also produce eco-friendly artisan goods, as well as premium small-batch items rooted in land, quality, and story. These offerings help fund the vision while sharing our values with the world.

Jessie My Love Foundation is not just a program. It’s a living system designed to protect women, uplift families, and build power in the soil. It is a love letter to those too often unseen. It’s an invitation to help us grow something sacred together.
