meeting this moment

Based in the heart of East San José, we are an urban farm that is more than a farm. We exist to gather the people, grow programs, nourish this place, and sustain its purpose to honor the generations before us, and those here and ahead.

The Challenge

Our region has been shaped by decades of exclusionary disinvestment, extractive systems, ever-shrinking access to safe green space, fresh food, and community care. 

OUR BELIEF

We believe East San José deserves a community gathering place and educational space. Where land is cared for, food is grown, and people have access to connect with the environment and with each other.
