The Farm

Any donations given to Healing Wings Ministry for Ezekiel Farms will raise the funds needed to make this vision a reality. Your sponsorship will help us:

Build seven family-run foster homes on shared land.
Create a central home for older youth to gain life skills, job training, and mentorship.
Establish a working farm where families and children care for livestock and crops, learning self-sufficiency and teamwork.
Foster an environment of shared meals and shared lives, replacing isolation with community support.

This is more than building houses—it’s building a future where children are safe, loved, and empowered.

About the 2026 Ezekiel Farms

Every Child Deserves a Forever Family
Imagine navigating the world alone at 18—no safety net, no guiding hand, just the uncertainty of what comes next. Sadly, this is the reality for nearly 20,000 youth who exit foster care each year in the United States without a permanent family. Without the security of a loving home, these young people face daunting challenges, including homelessness, joblessness, early parenthood, and substance use.

Tennessee’s Growing Foster Care Crisis
The state of Tennessee is experiencing a dramatic increase in the number of children entering foster care. Every year, approximately 1,000 youth age out of the system, left to fend for themselves without the stability of a home. In total, around 7,500 children are in foster care, and 350 are available for adoption, still waiting for families to step forward.

With too few foster families stepping up, many children—through no fault of their own—are placed in hospitals or high-risk facilities simply because there’s nowhere else for them to go. These environments aren’t where children belong, yet the system struggles to provide alternatives.

A Bold Solution: Ezekiel Farms
Healing Wings Ministry is taking action, bringing hope and change to Tennessee’s foster care landscape. Their vision: Ezekiel Farms, a thriving community of foster homes built on shared land. Instead of an institutionalized orphanage setting, Ezekiel Farms offers a true family environment, where children feel safe, loved, and supported.

Seven foster homes, each run by dedicated families, will provide nurturing spaces for children in need.
A central home will offer older youth a place to transition into adulthood, equipping them with life skills, job training, and mentorship for the road ahead.
A working farm will provide food and income for families. The community is invited to garden, teach classes, and mentor the kids. Families and children work together caring for livestock and crops—teaching self-sufficiency, teamwork, and valuable life lessons.
Shared meals and responsibilities will strengthen the bond between foster families, creating a village of support rather than isolated households.
In this interconnected community, no child is left to struggle alone. Instead, they are embraced, nurtured, and empowered—given the tools they need to succeed. Together, these families create something extraordinary: a home where love never expires.
