The truth that beneath every wound, every trauma, and every story we carry, there exists a whole, unbreakable self — a core essence that can never be destroyed, no matter the circumstances.
The heart of Unfragile Farm beats with the belief that all of us are born whole with everything we need inside to grow and develop into the best thriving version of ourselves. We recognize that a person’s life experiences may cloud over their essential wholeness, and we also know that no-one is disposable, no-one is beyond repair, and individual and collective healing are always possible. Our vision is rooted in these key pillars:
Unfragile Farm is a not-for-profit organization with traditional revenue streams from grants and charitable giving focused on social justice, trauma recovery, and sustainable agriculture.
Unfragile Farm also operates a social enterprise arm which incorporates multiple revenue generating ventures to support the Journey Within program operations and achieve financial sustainability.

Co-Founder and visionary, brings the soul of the farm to life through the power of lived experience. Wrongfully incarcerated for 32 years, Alphonso emerged not only unbroken but profoundly transformed. His path of healing, forgiveness, and spiritual growth has become a beacon for others. Alphonso embodies the truth that although we may be victimized, we do not have to become victims to our circumstances. His public speaking, storytelling, and leadership inspire people to break free—not just from physical prisons, but from the emotional and psychological cages that hold us back. His life is living testimony to what it means to be Unfragile.
