About the location, Cradle Of Care:

The vision for the Cradle of Care, a richly bio-diverse 62 acre forest, is to become a sustainable, cooperatively owned, multi-cultural home for land-based projects that care for the full spectrum of life, from birth to death. Alan Webb and Aden Van Noppen, (Alan’s ancestors lived on and tended the land for generations) currently live on the land and have begun to work with a broad and diverse community, identifying ways to realize the vision for the Cradle of Care. These include forest stewardship and forest farming according to Cherokee principles and needs, community gardening led by Black and Brown farmers, spiritual support for new mothers and pregnant people, a forest school for preschool and school age children, land dedicated to conservation burial and more. Working across a radical mix of cultures and lineages in one place, the Cradle of Care aims to grow trust, seek justice, healing, and repair, and build the foundation for shared prosperity for and with communities who have been disconnected from land.
