Welcome to the Gill Tract — a community farm where we grow food, share knowledge, and care for the land together. It's a place to dig your hands into the soil, learn from each other, and cultivate a strong sense of connection with the earth and those around you.

Explore our ever-growing lineup of community programs for adults, children, and families—including opportunities in volunteering and research. We hope to welcome you soon!
Our community programs and events invite people of all ages to engage with the farm through herbal classes, a farm stand, and an active composting hub—now joined by our new Earth Week celebrations.
Support our work and deepen your involvement by joining a Working Group—collaborative teams that help carry out daily operations and ongoing projects across the farm.

Our Vision
We envision a vibrant community farm, a model of shared governance and co-stewardship that helps restore community resilience.
We envision a space for the sharing of knowledge in agro-ecology, food sovereignty, and how to grow and prepare healthy food; a forum for popular and community-based education.
We envision a thriving ecology that reconnects humans to the sacred web of relationship that sustains culture and ways of life.
We envision a community where all people have equitable and affordable access to healthy food, rooted in principles of sharing and solidarity economies.
We struggle in coalition with food sovereignty organizations and movements locally, nationally, and internationally.
We envision the return of land to its rightful stewards, practicing rematriation and reparations as modes of collective healing, and community-based land stewardship rooted in right relationship with poor, Black, Indigenous, unhoused, and landless peoples of the world.
