Plant the seeds
Grow the village
From Pittsburgh to the world….The Healing House is planting the first seed of The Healing Village, where wellness, maternal care and food access grow together.
What Is The Healing Village By Royally Fit?
The Healing Village By Royally Fit is an international initiative dedicated to creating safe, regenerative spaces where health, healing and food sovereignty coexist.
Our mission is to empower women, families and communities through maternal wellness, mental health support, healthy food access and urban agriculture education.
Our first site, The Healing House in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, will serve as a model for what’s possible when we reimagine community care. It’s where our global vision takes root.
Why Pittsburgh Needs
The Healing House
Right here in Allegheny County, families are struggling with two connected crises, maternal health and access to healthy food. These challenges affect every part of our community’s well-being, especially for families living in under-resourced neighborhoods
Maternal Health Matters
In Allegheny County, about 9% of babies are born at a low birthweight but for Black infants, that number jumps to nearly 15%.
While most mothers start prenatal care early, too many still struggle to find the emotional and mental health support they need during and after pregnancy.
Food Access Is Unequal
More than 140,000 residents in Allegheny County don’t always know where their next healthy meal will come from — that’s 1 in 9 people.
In Pittsburgh, it’s even higher, about 1 in 5 residents live with food insecurity and many neighborhoods lack full-service grocery stores with fresh, affordable produce.
Our Communities Feel the Impact
Black babies in Allegheny County are twice as likely to be born at a low birthweight as White babies.
Families with lower incomes are far more likely to experience both food insecurity and higher stress, which increases risks for depression, anxiety and poor health outcomes for parents and children alike.
These challenges are interconnected. Communities with low food access often face higher rates of stress, depression and chronic illness.
Healing begins when we address both body and soil….nourishment and nurture…together!
Our Vision for The Healing Village
We’re building an ecosystem of wellness rooted in regenerative farming, maternal care and holistic education.
The Healing House is the first step toward our larger dream… a model for how communities can heal together through food, wellness and connection.
Located in Pittsburgh, The Healing House will serve as a food hub and safe third space where individuals and families can nourish their bodies, care for their minds and find community support.
At The Healing House, we’re combining urban agriculture, herbal medicine and integrative wellness care under one roof.
Our programs include:
Solution-Based Herbal Remedies: Blending traditional and evidence-based herbal practices to support physical and emotional healing.
Nutritionally-Tailored CSA Boxes: Fresh, locally grown produce curated to address health needs such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart health and postpartum recovery.
Integrative Therapies: Services like mindfulness sessions, yoga, massage and oxygen therapy, to reduce stress and improve mental health.
Wellness Support Groups: Evidence-based, safe circles for maternal health, mental wellness and self-care, helping people heal through shared experiences.
Education & Resources: Workshops on nutrition, herbalism, food preparation and chronic disease prevention, empowering people to take charge of their well-being.
The Healing House isn’t just a building….it’s a community anchor. It’s a place where people can come to learn, grow and heal together while reconnecting to the land and to each other.
This house is our foundation — the seed of what will grow into The Healing Village, an international network of wellness and regenerative farm education centers.
“The Healing House is planting hope for mothers, families and future generations.”

“Royally Fit is one of those things that feels too good to be true. The products, experiences, and people behind the brand are top notch. I've had the luxury of attending 4 of their retreats (3 locally and 1 in Puerto Rico), joined one of their Royal-Tea Cohorts, and used several products (Herbal Teas, DIY Elderberry Syrup Kit, and Headache Healer). I highly recommend taking advantage of all that Royally Fit has to offer, you won't be disappointed.”

The Healing Village: A Global Vision Rooted in Community
The Healing Village is the larger vision growing from our work in Pittsburgh — a global wellness and farm education initiative that redefines how we care for people and the planet.
What begins at The Healing House will expand into a network of healing-centered spaces, where wellness, agriculture and education work hand-in-hand to restore balance in our communities.
The Healing Village will be a place where:
Wellness Meets the Land: Healing doesn’t just happen in clinics…it happens in the garden, the kitchen and within community. Our center will include wellness facilities surrounded by regenerative farms and medicinal therapuetic gardens.
Food Is Medicine: Each site will grow and prepare nutrient-dense, culturally relevant foods that support health, vitality and chronic disease prevention.
Maternal and Family Health Are Prioritized: The Healing Village model centers women and families, offering mental health resources, postpartum care and nutrition education to break intergenerational cycles of stress and illness.
Education Creates Empowerment: We’ll train the next generation of herbalists, nutritionists, farmers and wellness practitioners through hands-on programs rooted in sustainability and cultural wisdom.
Global Connection: Each location will share knowledge, tools and stories across borders…linking communities in Pittsburgh, Puerto Rico and beyond through shared healing practices and purpose.
The Healing Village represents our commitment to building a world where every person has access to nutritious food, holistic care and the support needed to thrive…no matter where they live!
We’re planting seeds in Pittsburgh that will grow into a movement for collective healing, regeneration and resilience worldwide.
