About E5 Enclave, Inc.

A nonprofit built for the long game.

E5 Enclave, Inc. is a Miami-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to building the institutions, enterprises, and systems that create lasting community resilience. We don't build programs — we build infrastructure.

Our Mission

Advancing community self-determination through cooperative enterprise.

E5 Enclave exists to build the infrastructure that communities need to govern themselves, feed themselves, and sustain themselves economically. We believe that lasting change comes from ownership — of land, of institutions, of systems.

Our approach combines nonprofit programming with cooperative enterprise models, ensuring that the value created by community effort stays in the community.

Our Roots

Grounded in Liberty City. Reaching beyond.

E5 Enclave rises from Liberty City, Miami — a community with a deep tradition of resistance, self-organization, and mutual aid. We carry that tradition forward by building the cooperative institutions and enabling systems that the next generation needs.

"Legacy lives in community impact, not individual recognition."

What We Do

Three areas of community investment.

Education & Training

STEM programming, agrarian education, and workforce development pathways that build real skills and real careers in food systems and technology.

Cooperative Enterprise

Incubating community-owned businesses and cooperatives that keep economic value local — starting with FarmBlock Grow Co-op.

Community Infrastructure

Building the physical and digital systems — farms, networks, tools — that make neighborhoods more resilient, connected, and self-sufficient.

Current Initiative

FarmBlock: Our flagship cooperative program.

FarmBlock is E5 Enclave's primary initiative — a cooperative network that combines community food production, workforce training, and enabling technology into a single, integrated system.

It is designed to be replicable — starting in Liberty City, Miami-Dade, and expanding to other urban and rural communities that have land, people, and the will to build something lasting.

Smart systems that serve the community, not the other way around.

The technology is designed to work even without reliable internet access. Local control means local resilience.
