Grounded in Freedom is a three-day gathering, with community and connection at the heart of our celebration. This event will take place from July 11 to 13 at Ayeko Farm in Enumclaw, WA, and will feature a series of workshops that explore the principles of land stewardship, the movements of capoeira, samba, salsa, and the communal joy of sharing meals made with fresh ingredients from the farm.

Our workshops are designed not just to share knowledge but to foster a hands-on experience that encourages participation, learning, and the exchange of ideas. Each session is led by passionate experts and teaching artists eager to share their skills and insights, ensuring a fulfilling and enlightening experience for all attendees.

The mission of Grounded Freedom is to nurture spaces that reconnect BIPOC communities with their cultural heritage and the land through the cultivation of essential crops, immersive educational experiences, cultural arts, and healing retreats. We envision a world where all life is respected and cared for, ensuring humans live in harmony with nature. Our goal is to build an inclusive community where cultural arts serve as a channel for healing and progressive change, fostering a society where everyone feels empowered to be their truest self.
