It Starts with the Soil
Everything we do is rooted in relationship—with the land, with the people, and with the seeds we carry. Grown in Haiti is not just a project. It’s a living practice of renewal.
Our Mission
To regenerate Haiti’s ecosystems by restoring forests, strengthening local food systems, and empowering land stewards with knowledge, seeds, and solidarity. We do this through land-based education, seed sharing, and long-term community relationships that build resilience from the ground up.
Our Vision
We envision a Haiti where native trees thrive, food grows abundantly, and local people lead the way in restoring balance with nature. A Haiti where regeneration is not just a method but a way of life.
From One Tree to a Movement
Grown in Haiti began in 2014 in the mountains of Cap Rouge. The land had been stripped bare—erosion was widespread, and trees were disappearing fast. We didn’t wait for external funding or foreign solutions. With native seeds, cuttings, and a two-wheel motorcycle, we started small. One tree, one seedling, one plot at a time.
What began as a personal effort quickly grew. Neighbors started planting. Children helped spread mulch. Farmers shared what little they had. Over time, the work evolved into a movement. We now run a seedling nursery with tens of thousands of plants and host workshops that connect traditional farming wisdom with regenerative systems that actually work for Haiti’s diverse landscapes.
What Guides Us
-
Regeneration is cyclical
We work with nature’s patterns, not against them.
-
Seeds are memory
Sharing seeds means sharing legacy, resilience, and future food.
-
Knowledge should be shared
We teach, learn, and grow alongside those who care for the land.
-
Without community, there’s no sustainability
The work must be rooted in local hands.
