Wild Kid Acres is devoted to providing farm-based education and community experiences, and to producing regenerative, sustainable and accessible food.

Wild Kid Acres is owned by a minority, veteran, and beginning farmer, Gerardo Martinez. The 5 acres Anne Arundel county farm property was purchased in 2019. Upon purchasing the property, Gerardo and his family set out to convert the unofficial dump into a thriving homestead using climate-smart agricultural practices. The family built the home and all the infrastructure surrounding the farm by hand. Orginially from the inner city and migrant families themselves, Gerardo and his family also wanted to ensure that their new homestead could serve as a model for other young families looking to find alternative ways to redevelop properties.

Wild Kid Acres identifies three main goals for the farm: To inspire the community; To enhance local economic development; and to enrich the local ecosystem with climate-smart agricultural practices. Wild Kid Acres has become a focal point for agricultural education, access, and inclusion.
