Knowledge That
Grows with the Land
At Grown in Haiti, education is rooted in experience. We learn by doing, teach by sharing, and grow by regenerating together.
Training with Our Hands in the Soil
Education here doesn’t happen in classrooms. It happens under the sun, in the rain, besides the trees we plant and the gardens we restore. Our community training includes:
-
Learn by doing
We host seasonal workshops focused on regenerative agriculture, from soil restoration and natural mulching to tree planting and erosion control. Each session is grounded in real-life application using local tools and resources. -
Personalized support for local land stewards
We work directly with farmers and growers to help them restore their land using regenerative techniques. Each mentorship is tailored to the individual’s land, needs, and goals, offering guidance rooted in lived experience, not theory. -
Connecting generations through skill sharing
Our youth programs emphasize learning from elders, local land stewards, and each other. We create space for young people to participate in food production, seed saving, and traditional land-based practices, building confidence and connection. -
Building leadership from within the community
Groups of trained farmers are supported to lead localized training efforts in their neighborhoods. These committees foster peer-to-peer learning, strengthen neighborhood resilience, and expand the reach of regenerative practices.
Learning from the Land,
Not Just About It
We teach with what is around us. Local materials, native species, traditional wisdom. Methods shaped by the environment they come from, not imported from somewhere else. Whether it is rebuilding soil with weeds, planting in cycles, or reading the rains, the land is the classroom.
Our trainings are open to farmers, youth, neighbors, and community members who want practical ways to care for land, grow food, and restore ecological balance using what is already here.
A Home for Shared Learning
As our work expands, so does our dream: a dedicated Community Learning Center, where neighbors, teachers, and visiting practitioners can come together to share deeper knowledge and hands-on experiences.
This space will host workshops on topics like:
Mycology & soil fungi
Post-harvest food processing
Using natural fibers
Seed-to-table cooking & nutrition
Sustainable construction and design
And much more
It will be a home for shared knowledge, one that grows with each person who passes through.

Whether you’re a teacher, grower, artist, or simply someone who loves to share knowledge, we’d love to connect. We’re also actively fundraising to bring this vision to life.
