ⓘ A collective focused on plant biodiversity and fundraising for BIPOC-owned farms based in and around Providence, RI. It was founded in summer 2020 by Andi Arnold, Rae Leonard, and Teal Pires as a way for plant enthusiasts to gather and share knowledge while raising money to contribute towards things like new harvesting equipment and daily operating costs at farms.

FROM THE FOUNDER OF QUAINTLY FARM [4/4]
“This work is motivated by my passion in Maternal Child Health as Perinatal Doula.
The farm is not just about nutrition, it is a healing space for peace and a safe place for expecting families to build within their community. The marriage of these two justice movements, maternal and environmental justice, is vital to the health and wellness of our communities.
Our plans are to grow our consumption through a local farmers market, expand our land usage, and educate on urban farming.”
