MY WHY
It has been said that food is a catalyst that brings people together; however the manner in which food is accessed and grown is not equitable. As one of many solutions to the issue, I wanted to create an opportunity for people to be empowered and equipped to face the issue themselves.
HISTORY
Lillian Timber Farms is a Non Profit 501 C3 corporation established in 2019 as a response to food insecurity on the Northeast Side of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Founder LaTasha Timberlake returned to her neighborhood and hometown with the mission of uniting the community through gardening and teaching sustainable living practices.
The mother lot, “The Lottie Lot” located at 2125 N. Lottie OKC, OK 73111, was installed with community and corporate donations along with more than 50 hours of labor from community volunteers.
