The mission of Fountain Heights Farms is to improve the quality of life for the current residents of the historic Fountain Heights community of Birmingham, Alabama.

Our approach includes meeting our community's immediate needs for healthy, culturally appropriate, fresh foods through urban farming initiatives. We advocate for BIPOC land ownership and land justice while creating opportunities within the food system for flexible, self-guided employment through programs like our Urban Farmer in Training and Urban Mushroom programs. 

Our culturally inclusive and responsive education reconnects urban dwellers with the joy and healing power of nature.
