As we Grow… We GROW!
The F.R.E.E. THiNKERS Program will equip you with the knowledge and tools to perpetually produce home grown natural herbs, while licensed mental health practitioners and coaches equip you with the knowledge and tools to cultivate a deeper, more mindful dimension of your total self.
Cultivating Plants…
We intend to host a 12-14 week course that will teach the fundamentals of indoor/backyard cannabis/hemp horticulture from seedling to harvest. The initial orientation will be in person, but per COVID-19 restrictions, we will conduct a majority, if not all, of the classes, virtually. As goes for the mental health facets of this journey, all conducted virtually.
Before instruction, we will assist registrants with attaining their own state-certified Nursery Certificate and Hemp Cultivation License.
The grow cycle will require 1- 3 indoor grow tents, 1-3 top of the line commercial LED lighting appliances, a complete line of plant nutrients and supplements from industry leading vendors, and all of the miscellaneous equipment and materials necessary to facilitate abundantly fruitful harvests.
Registrants will choose their own product/nutrient line from specified vendors partnering with the organization.
Admin from the organization will help registrants determine the best placement and fit for their projects and will assist with the setup process.
Classes will meet once weekly on ZOOM.
Participants will be asked to submit video assignments, discussion board feedback, and keep a grow journal throughout the grow cycle.
At completion, we will demonstrate how to carefully, dry, cure, and properly store our harvests.
More detailed information on this program, the Firmly Rooted Community Gardening Program, and our Workforce Development Initiatives will be available soon.
Stay Tuned.

Cultivating Self…
During registration we will give participants a plethora of mental health/total wellness professionals to choose from based on their personal wellness goals. Practitioners will include licensed/certified therapists, wellness coaches, nutritionists, life coaches, holistic arts gurus, shamans, and healers of the like.
All interactions between program participants and their wellness professionals will be kept completely confidential. Participants and their guides will agree upon how frequently they will meet, but we encourage at least one meeting per week. No pressure; the aim is to provide the space and freedom for self-exploration and release.
Like gardening, healing is a process that takes time and requires patience and great care.
