Cultivating connection in sign language
Mission
Deaf EcoFarm’s mission is to nourish the Deaf community* through hands-on environmental education, agriculture, and community-based stewardship that cultivates connection to nature and each other.
*Deaf community: An all-encompassing term that includes Deaf, DeafBlind, DeafDisabled, hard-of-hearing, CODAs, ASL interpreters, and the signing community.
We envision...
an interconnected Deaf community* that flourishes within a thriving ecosystem.
