ABOUT US
Green Heffa Farms is wellness brand that produces high quality herbal goods, with a soft spot for loose leaf herbal teas and dried herbs for home apothecaries. To ensure the quality of the botanicals we use, we grow over 70% of our plant material on our own organic, regenerative farm. We source the other 30% intentionally, prioritizing partnerships with small scale farmers who share our values.
We do a lot on our 15 acres.
We seek to defy stereotypes and remove barriers for others who are turning to farming for a different quality of life; who want to live good while doing good for others by growing high quality crops with an ecological consciousness. It is our mission to provide our customers with an exemplary experience while providing them to be a partner in expanding access to agriculture for underserved and under-represented farmers.
LOCATION
As a working farm that is not open to the public and as a Black woman owned farm that prioritizes safety and security, we do not disclose our location outside of sharing that we are located in Chatham County, NC. Customers interested in on-farm pickups are provided with the zip code prior to purchase to plan accordingly. Full address is provided once your purchase is complete.
ECONOMIC
PROSPERITY
We seek to provide an innovative network and capacity building efforts that connects farmers to resources and enables them to streamline farm operations and prioritize growing boutique quality crops in a sustainable manner. We want to provide jobs to the local communities and give back philanthropically into programs and projects that benefit the underserved and underrepresented.

4E'S SOLUTIONS APPROACH
By focusing on the 4Es™ principle of Economic empowerment, Equity, Environment and Education, GHF will increase the number of social conscious farmers and entrepreneurs.
EQUITY
We seek to help maintain current minority land ownership, increase equity and inclusion in agribusiness, with a focus on medicinal plants and specialty crops grown for the natural beauty and health industries.
ENVIRONMENT
We will encourage farmers to use best ecological practices to protect soil health, maintain crop yields and increase arm profitability. By having a model farm, farmers are able to see firsthand how environmental stewardship can benefit a farm's bottom line.
