MISSION & VALUES

Our Mission is to acquire land and collaborate with architects, farmers, and landscape designers to develop integrated living spaces that support the production and distribution of food, medicine, and textiles.

Our Vision is to see well-being, connectedness, and food sovereignty integrated into the built environment.

WELL BEING 

Individuals are celebrated and provided opportunities for education, advancement, and leisure. Nourishment of the mind, body, and spirit is accessible from home. 

CONNECTEDNESS

People live in harmony with the natural world and designs take inspiration from nature. Shared social places organically bring people into contact with their community. It is easy to get around.

FOOD SOVEREIGNTY

A food system in which the people who consume food also control the mechanisms and policies of food production and distribution.

OUR FUTURE

Manifest Acres is a new venture. After executing our first urban farmhouse project, Manifest Acres plans to collaborate with others to create cooperative housing, eco-villages, and a just transition of our nation’s farmland. Connect with us today!
