The farm serves as a gathering place where people from different backgrounds work together on sustainable growing practices and strengthen their community through hands-on agriculture.
The center welcomes visitors during weekdays when you can purchase fresh produce and join educational programs about urban farming. Check ahead to confirm current opening times and available programs before your visit.
