Tierra Medicina Colorado
Our Tierra Medicina Colorado programs center local Spanish-speaking communities, offering opportunities to connect with the land through learning its history, ecosystems, and bioregional healing foods and herbs.
We support and create spaces for local BIPOC communities to heal by deepening their connection with the land we live on.
We believe that climate resilience efforts led by local and Native communities have a long-lasting, transformative impact.
Tierra Medicina Colorado Initiatives
Circulos buena vida
We host monthly community gatherings, centering BIPOC and Spanish-speaking communities, in a Restorative Justice-style circle process, held in nature when weather permits. These circles offer a space for shared learning and connection—with the land and with each other. Together, we explore the history of the land, local ecosystems, bioregional healing foods and herbs, and natural medicines.
Rooted in the principles of collective care and accountability, these gatherings also create space for open dialogue around decolonization, community liberation practices, and healing, with the aim of fostering long-lasting thriving—for both the land and the people who inhabit it.
Pachamama Medicina Retreat
In collaboration with Boundless in Motion and the Eco-Dharma Retreat Center, we support an annual women's retreat designed specifically for low-income, Spanish-speaking women. Hosted at the Eco-Dharma Retreat Center, this 4-day immersive experience offers participants a nurturing space to reconnect with nature, themselves, and each other.
Through guided activities, the retreat explores the history of the original land stewards, local ecosystems, ancestral knowledge, and bioregional herbalism. Participants engage in storytelling, land-based practices, and healing rituals that deepen their relationship with the Earth and honor traditional wisdom.
Community Healing Micro-Grants
We provide small grants to local BIPOC cooperatives and individuals whose work centers healing through connection with the Earth.
Urban Farm Project
We are actively seeking land access to establish a small urban farm. This space will host programs focused on food as medicine, medicinal plants, and traditional medicine-making. It will also serve as a hub for community education around local climate resilience and ecological healing.
