What You Leave Behind

Youth interview elders to turn memories, recipes, and life lessons into family memoirs. Preserve your voice and give the next generation a story to carry forward.

Palatka: A Future Place to Learn

Our vision for Palatka brings growing, land education, and family stories together. The half-acre parcel is raw, privately owned family land registered with USDA. A proposed lease for Foundation use awaits attorney and board review. Hydroponics, aquaponics, gardens, and a memoir pavilion are future concepts, not operating facilities.

Tamika Ngaham — Founder & Executive Director

As a licensed nursing home administrator, Tamika Ngaham saw families face questions about care costs, homes, and trusts during a crisis. She founded The Legacy Table Foundation to bring those conversations back to the family table—early, together, and across generations.

"I didn't start a nonprofit. I answered a call that had been placed on my life long before I had the words for it."

— Tamika Ngaham, Founder
