FAQs
Have you found a property?
We’ve found the perfect property in the Milwaukee area, but the real estate market doesn’t play to the timeline of nonprofits! For that reason. we’re doing two things:
(1) we are fundraising now so we can be ready for this particular property; and
(2) we’re asking community partners to help us find other farm properties within an hour of Milwaukee that suit our needs. Share your leads at fullcirclehealingmke@gmail.com!
What if you raise more than the property ends up costing?
Once we buy the land, our next challenge will be to scale up production and programming in our new home. Should we raise excess funds, they will support the ongoing operations and programming offered by Full Circle Healing Farm.
Who will own the farm?
Our 501(c)3 entity, Full Circle Healing Farm UA, will hold title to the property. Martice and Amy will retain a long-term lease on the house. This allows for the farmland to be protected forever, while still supporting Martice and Amy to build a long-term home for their family and young children. We are grateful to the Sustainable Economies Law Center and Small Axe Cooperative for helping us set the legal foundation for this innovative way to hold land!
