About Us
Grandmothers’ Village Project
MISSION 🔹 VISION 🔹 VALUES
​We are a nonprofit intentional community organization developed to house our diverse, and marginalized grandmothers/fathers in an environmentally safe and ecologically sound “Grandmothers’ Village.” ​
​
“A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history.”
Mohandas Gandhi
​
Our Mission
Our mission is to foster a healthy and sustainable environment; promote social, economic, environmental, housing, food, and spiritual justice; and strengthen community well-being for marginalized Elders: our Grandmothers and Grandfathers.
Our Vision
Grandmothers’ Village Project envisions Wisdom Tree Village, a living, land-based community where Elders are surrounded by beauty, safety, ceremony, and ecological harmony. Our vision is to build an intentional village of net-zero, eco-sustainable homes designed specifically for Elder health, mobility, and dignity.
​
Our community will include:
• A regenerative organic farm providing fresh food, herbs, and plant medicine
• A Healing & Retreat Center offering ceremony, arts, meditation, storytelling, and creative expression
• A Sanctuary for cultural and spiritual practices from a diversity of Indigenous and ancestral lineages
• A Community Kitchen and Gathering Hall for shared meals, teachings, and celebrations
• Walking paths, gardens, and quiet spaces that honor the land and protect wildlife
• A learning environment where Elders pass down wisdom to families, youth, and future generations
• Off-grid water, energy, and land-tending systems rooted in Indigenous Technologies and regenerative design
​
Wisdom Tree Village will be a place where Elders live independently yet in community; where they are honored for their lived experience; where ceremony is part of daily life; and where the land is treated as a living relative, not a resource.
It will be a blueprint for environmental justice, land stewardship, ancestral continuity, and Elder-centered community care.
Our Values
Integrity
We honor the highest integrity in all actions, relationships, and decisions.
​
Reverence for All Beings
We show deep respect for our human and other-than-human relatives, the land, the waters,
the air, and all of nature.
​
Commitment to JEDIA
We uphold Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Ability for all Elders, especially those who
have long been marginalized or excluded.
​
Environmental & Community Well-being
We commit to clean air, clean water, organic food, regenerative farming, and zero-carbon
living as essential to Elder health and community resilience.
​
Spiritual & Animist Foundation
We are guided by Indigenous Technologies, Values, and Customs. Our work rests on a spiritual and animist worldview that honors ancestors, land, ceremony, and the interconnectedness of all life.
