HI THERE. WE’RE RECLAIMING ALIGNMENT

We nurture the soul of organizing—offering tools for rest, connection, and resilience in service of climate, food, land, and community justice. Come explore where earth, people, and purpose align.

OUR OFFERINGS

In rhythm with the earth and each other.

Cultivating a culture of sustainability and transformation, Reclaiming Alignment plants resilient seeds—like mustard—across three land-based projects rooted in community and collective care.

Our programs uplift environmental and social justice movements across Turtle Island and beyond, nurturing a legacy of regeneration led and carried forward by the community.

OUR MISSION

At Reclaiming Alignment, we restore balance through interdependence—rooted in land, care, and collective thriving.

  • “We believe that when we can sustain our movements and transform the ways we organize, we can create the cultural and systemic changes needed to protect our collective future.”

    B. Anderson, Founder of Black Earth Wisdom

  • “I meet so many disciplined, resilient, adaptive, beautiful Black and Brown farmers. They all have a piece of the vision. A vision of where farmers are treated with dignity, where there are sustainable, regenerative systems & infrastructure—”

    Cly Samson, Farm Care Manager, Rainier Beach Action Collective

  • “...so you don’t have to work 2-3 extra jobs just to keep afloat (or even work at all!), where their children and grandchildren can heal with the plant medicine that they grow, and so on and so forth.”

    Cly Samson, Farm Care Manager, Rainier Beach Action Collective

  • “But they are so tired by the end of a farm day to even meet up, learn from each other and see the bigger picture.”

    Cly Samson, Farm Care Manager, Rainier Beach Action Collective

  • “Just imagine, if all of us, not just farmers, but the world, had the opportunity to rest and have the space to breathe and reclaim alignment—the world would heal seven generations back and forward, no doubt. What would the bigger picture look like then? What beautiful possibilities can be imagined further when healing has already taken place?”

    Cly Samson, Farm Care Manager, Rainier Beach Action Collective
