Elmwood Eastwick Empowerment, Inc. (EEE), operating as the Black Farmers Co-op of Philadelphia, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing food insecurity and promoting sustainable agriculture in under-resourced communities. Rooted in Southwest Philadelphia, EEE champions urban farming initiatives, educational programs, and community engagement to foster self-sufficiency and holistic well-being.

We are a dedicated farming organization focused on creating sustainable, community-driven solutions to improve food access, agricultural education, and environmental health. With a strong belief that everyone deserves access to fresh, locally grown food, we work alongside farmers, educators, and community members to build resilient food systems.

Our programs encompass hands-on training in regenerative agriculture, hydroponics, and urban farming, and provide resources for growing food in various environments, from rural farmlands to urban spaces. Through workshops, educational events, and community projects, we empower individuals of all ages with the knowledge and skills to grow their own food, understand the impact of sustainable farming, and contribute to a healthier planet.
