Our Programs

Campesino Commons programming is rooted in long-term relationships and guided by the visions of those most impacted by colonization, climate change, and displacement.

Liberación Dharma

Liberación Dharma is an initiative to engage local white (Caucasian descendant) Buddhist communities in Colorado in decolonization work and active participation in reparations.

This year-long cohort is designed for individuals who recognize that they have received material benefits from systems of colonization, and who are also aware of the profound costs—both to the communities dispossessed, and to their own sense of connection and belonging in the world.

While Liberación Dharma primarily centers white (Caucasian descendant), wealthy, English-speaking Americans, it is open to anyone who acknowledges their benefit from colonial systems and is committed to working toward their dismantling.


Nueva Esperanza

Nueva Esperanza is a direct collaboration with rural land steward communities in and around Teotecacinte, Nicaragua. In partnership with these communities, Campesino Commons is committed to providing the resources needed to support community-led efforts for both climate resilience and collective well-being.

The community has established community circles—collaborative spaces for decision-making where members identify their most urgent needs and guide the development of projects accordingly. These efforts are rooted in the shared goal of nurturing both the land and the people, ensuring that both can thrive in harmony.


Tierra Medicina Colorado

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.

Our programming also centers local Spanish-speaking communities, offering opportunities to connect with the land through learning its history, ecosystems, and bioregional healing foods and herbs.

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.
