Past Service Locations - Bakersfield, CA (July 2023-Feburary 2024) , Oaxaca, Mexico (March 2024- August 2024)
Bees of the Indigo is a two-fold traveling project that centers on garden landscaping and wellness workshops that empower community action around sustainable garden buildings. We work intuitively with the divine spirits and ancestors to build sustainable gardens that foster freedom, food sovereignty, healing, and justice. We construct side-by-side with the communities we serve through collective support and solution-building.
Garden Building Mission Projects:
We bridge through building and collaborating with organizations and individuals. From all community collaborations, partnerships, and pathways under Sweet Herbal Honey, 50 % of our proceeds go back to our communities through our Sweet Cause Fund, where we distribute need-based items and resources to the low-income communities we serve and care for. Gratefully, we donated over a thousand dollars through donation drop-offs in 2023 to our unhoused community in California.
Spring and Summer of 2024, we gratefully built and started a sustainable garden in Oaxaca, Mexico. The Bees of Indigo Unity Garden was donated to a beautiful family, Chela and Camila in Oaxaca to continue maintaining the ancestral garden to provide accessible food for their family and local families in the area.
We support through mission projects where we support our low-income families and communities in need without any charge, only love.
Garden Development & Support:
Community Gardens, Schools, Restorative Gardens, Private Gardens, Urban Gardens

Through our pathways of liberation, we centralize alternative routes towards the vital accessibility towards holistic health, nutrition, and equity and believe it takes a village to empower our generations toward building long-lasting legacies that end global poverty. We travel in the US and internationally to support our communities hands-on and side-by-side.
Project Programming:
Ancestral workshops, Community Events, Workshops, Creative Fundraisers, and Group community service on the garden. Project duration is dependent on clients' or community needs.
After - August 2024

Tracking down needs, short-term and long-term goals/plans for site, mapping/site plan development, and water sources and irrigations
How do you envision the garden to look? greenhouses, shed, ponds, raised beds, beehives, animals, in-ground crops, etc... We will draw a detailed layout of the garden during this process. I will begin working with you to develop a sketch-up, then transfer to digital layout. During this stage, you will receive both the drawing and digital site plan. After the layout is completed, we will begin the building process, including filing all beds and composting bins.
