Fox Haven is proud to continue offering the region’s first Fresh Herb Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. CSA Members receive a monthly selection of herbs, study guides with recipes and resources, and a hands-on class to build skills. After a season with us, your pantry will be full of homemade teas, tinctures, oils, salves, and vinegars. For more information on how a CSA Membership works please view the FAQ page: https://foxhavenfarm.org/herb-csa/

Buy A Reparation Share for a BIPOC CSA Member: Add a donation to your order

(Suggested Donation: $50 or more)

Fox Haven recognizes that our non-profit has played a role in perpetuating systems of racism and colonization through our privilege. We engage in financial and material reparations to communities of color and indigenous peoples and learn from those leading the way to a more just future. We encourage you to join us in this by buying a Reparations Share that can be passed on to any BIPOC person who wishes to receive this form of reparations.

ARE YOU COMPLETELY NEW TO USING HERBS AND WANT TO START SLOW?

Herbal Basics offers a slow-paced introduction to herbs. We’ll cover 10 key herbs and walk you through harvesting and preparing herbs so that you leave with a ready-made product to take home.

Beginning in 2022, Fox Haven will pay $2 from every ticket sale to the Piscataway Land Trust as a LandBack tax for the land Fox Haven inhabits. Land taxes to indigenous nations function similarly to paying rent or a home mortgage. Payments such as a mortgage provide access to living space, whereas LandBack taxes recognize our access to stolen Indigenous land.

The Piscataway Land Trust is a long-term Indigenous-led effort led by the 501(c)(3) Cedarville Band of Piscataway Indians Inc. to restore and rematriate ancestral land and sovereignty in the Chesapeake region to Piscataway and other Chesapeake Indigenous people.

Venue

Blue Light Junction
209 McAllister St, Suite A
Baltimore, MD 21202 United States

About LandBack Tax
From 2022 onward, Fox Haven will donate $2 from each event ticket to the Kikeokan Foundation to pay LandBack tax, acknowledging our access to stolen Indigenous land. The Kikeokan Foundation is an Indigenous-led initiative working to restore ancestral land and sovereignty to the Piscataway and other Indigenous communities of the Chesapeake.
