Little River Cooperative

We are a female led team of farmers, growers & educators, a.k.a. “Plant Nerds”, focused on sharing our love of and passion for useful plants with our community. Over the last 7 years we have become a central resource for all things relating to growing food in South Florida. We strive to be examples of how individuals can make a difference in their urban environment by sharing resources on composting, suburban backyard food gardening, growing & making plant medicine and becoming more resilient community members in the process. 

Whether it's through an educational workshop, a quick stop at our farmers market booth, or a visit to our edible plant nursery we strive to always be empowering our customers to grow their own food & medicine at home through education & exposure to farming in an urban environment. 

Our customers are sustainability minded city dwellers who are interested in getting their hands dirty, and deepening their relationship with the sacred art of growing food. They are people who see the value in teaching the next generation of earthlings about the importance of organic farming & caring for the environment. They are community members who see the magic in watching a seed turn into a plant which then turns into a tomato and wants to share it just like we do.

We teach people about growing & gardening in our tropical climate in a clear and approachable way so that they can  easily digest large complex ideas about the environment and integrate those lessons into their gardens and lives. Our expertise is focused on this special climate and its challenges and complexities, making us as unique in the gardening world as our climate is in the continental US.
