Growing a
New Food System
in San Diego
Our founding farmers blend East African agricultural practices with decades of experience growing in San Diego. We teach, grow food, and develop agricultural knowledge directly with the community. All from our 8,000 square foot garden and 60-tree orchard.
Learn to make compost, start seeds, and start farming wherever you have space. Join us in growing a new food system in San Diego.
The food we grow nourishes our community directly. Our crop is collectively managed from seed to sprout to harvest and donated directly to community members, local food pantries, and mutual aid organizations.
