South Central Farm, Urban community garden in South Los Angeles, United States
The South Central Farm covered 14 acres of land, enabling 350 families to cultivate vegetables, fruits, and herbs in individual plots throughout the space.
The land transformed from an unused city property in 1994 into a community garden through a permit granted to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank.
Farmers maintained connections to their agricultural heritage by growing traditional Mesoamerican crops and organizing regular community gatherings at the garden.
Members of the garden distributed fresh organic produce to nearby neighborhoods, offering affordable access to nutritious food in South Los Angeles.
Each farming family received a designated plot measuring 30 by 30 feet to cultivate their choice of crops throughout the growing season.
