Reflections on the Farm Midwifery Center

This reflective article explores over a decade of visits to The Farm Midwifery Center in Tennessee and personal transformation. Rooted in ecological and spiritual paradigms, The Farm models a holistic, relational approach to birth that challenges institutional norms. The Farm’s ethos inspired the author’s doctoral research and ongoing commitment to midwifery as an ecospiritual practice grounded in care, community and connection – offering a vision for more sustainable and values-based maternity care.
