Our Story

ORO House is a family owned business. Over the years one of the ways we have grown together as a family is through gardening. As we’ve experienced housing changes, income insecurity, trauma, and so much more we have had to find ways to make gardening much more accessible for our family. In Tucson, we’ve been able to build community and find ways to make gardening work for us. Now that we’re working to share that information with other BIPOC folks (and friends) of our community. Our goal is to help you help yourself. To learn how to utilize the resources readily available to you. And to develop a relationship with the land that feels sustainable. Our focus is on native plants, plants specific to African Americans and others of the diaspora, and the fiber arts.

We want to share the knowledge we’ve gained over the years so that others can find the peace and joy we’ve found.
