Neighborhood food, grown by single moms.

We train and pay single mothers to run small farms in Front Range front and side yards, then share the harvest with neighbors through a backyard CSA.

Growing better together.

Join as a grower Offer your yard

Three plants, three ways to join.

Indigenous farmers have planted corn, beans and squash together for centuries. Each helps the others grow. Our program works the same way.

Corn gives structure

Growers

Single moms learn to farm, earn a wage, and move up to mentor the next grower.

Beans climb and enrich

Hosts

Lend a sunny front or side yard. You'll get a share of every harvest in return.

Small yards, rich soil.

We grow in front and side yards, where a woman working alone is in view of her neighbors and safe. We use biointensive methods: deep-dug beds, close planting and compost that builds the soil every season. That is how a small plot produces a meaningful harvest, and every yard is left healthier than we found it.

Built to be shared.

We're writing down everything we learn — a handbook, a podcast and a plain-language guide — and giving it free to any city that wants single moms growing food on their own blocks.

Funding the first season.

Three Sisters is raising its first season now. If you fund food, women, or neighborhoods along the Front Range, Angela Tiernan would love to talk.
