Still Rise Farms
A wellness incubator and living laboratory advancing food as medicine and integrative care.
Exploring how lifestyle, environment, and evidence-based wellness can complement clinical care and improve outcomes.
Still Rise Farms grew directly from my work with patients.
As a breast cancer surgeon and researcher, I was often asked the same question: “What can I do to support my health beyond treatment?”
Patients were not looking for alternatives to medicine—they were looking for practical, evidence-informed ways to feel stronger, recover more fully, and stay well.
Still Rise Farms was created in response to that need.
It is a wellness incubator and living laboratory where we explore how food, movement, mindset, and environment can complement medical care and improve outcomes. Through research, education, and immersive experiences, we translate evidence into practical strategies that people can apply in their daily lives.
This work is also about access and trust.
Many communities face barriers to care and lack exposure to evidence-based wellness approaches. Still Rise Farms is designed to help bridge that gap—bringing together clinical science, community, and real-world application in one place.
At its core, Still Rise Farms reflects a simple idea: care should extend beyond treatment, and people should have the tools to actively participate in their health.
