I see you as my big sis Suga’s Urban Farm. You out here making things happen not only for you and the ag community but for the city as well. Keep shining and winning sis 💪🏾.

Stay encouraged, no matter how tuff things may get as you're creating paths for those behind you. Allow God to guide you in your decisions and you can't lose. 💚

My first apple tree pruning!

Learn from me as I tidy up my tree and remove a couple of suckers growing at its base.

While you may think they are little “bonus trees” worth repotting— if they’re coming from the rootstock, they can grow very differently from the apple tree. Same roots don’t necessarily mean the same apples! 👀

Have you grown an apple tree, or is one on your garden wish list?

Found some old pics, I believe senior year of college or maybe a few years later. Lawd, what was we up too 😂. And if you...

And if you were to ask me back then if I were to ever become a farmer or have natural hair. Gurl, I would have laughed in your face.

Girl Shakera Lawrence I truly APPRECIATE you!
Man you have been such a tremendous help and inspiration to me over this last year.
From the check ups, to bouncing ideas off of each other, to your team helping me pack up 😭 (gurl I knew I was going to be packing up for two hours but y'all saved me).
I cherish our friendship and I look forward to seeing what God has in store for you in the upcoming years.

DO YOUR THANG SIS! 💚

Yes, it's fall gardening season but we're getting things ready for spring as well.

Baby dem strawberries were out there doing marathons because I propagated 50 before I ran out of containers.

So in about 3 weeks dem babies should be rooted and if I find them another home in time, they'll have their own bed and be bundled up in some mulch for the winter.

Sometimes one conversation can change the way you see yourself and what’s possible. For me, that conversation was with Ms. Ina Braxton 💚

In celebration of the International Year of the Woman Farmer, I’m sharing short videos honoring some amazing women in agriculture—and I’m starting with someone who made a lasting difference in my farming journey.

Ms. Ina helped me gain clarity, guided me toward getting my farm number, and changed my understanding of what farming could look like. That conversation helped me see my own work and its possibilities in a new light.

Ms. Ina, thank you for sharing your knowledge and taking the time to help me. What may have felt like a simple conversation to you meant so much to me. I’m grateful for the part you’ve played in my journey and happy to give you your flowers. 🌻

More WIC markets to come in 2027!

Rock climbing has been on my bucket list for a while, but I kept putting it off because of my weight. When my friend said she wanted to go for her birthday, though, I said, “Bet!” 😂

Even though those shoes started hurting my feet 😭, I truly enjoyed myself—and I’d definitely do it again!

Sometimes, the limitations holding us back are the ones we’ve placed on ourselves. But God didn’t give us this life to watch it pass by while we wait for the “perfect” time or a “better” version of ourselves.

Take the chance. Make the memory. Enjoy your life right where you are.

Just try it, sis! 💚
