The last farm stand!!!
We just received some devastating news that the board of directors has decided to close the community garden. The garden is home to 210 gardens and 10 incubator farms, including our 2 quarter acre lots.It’s the largest community garden in San Diego, the amount of biodiversity grown in this space make its beyond special! Home to birds and pollinators from far and near!!
The Pixca farmstand is our livelihood and one of the only sources of clean produce for the community in this food desert. It’s more than a farm stand it’s become a community hub bringing different cultures together with food and fellowship.The farmers and gardeners here depend on this place to support them, their families and their communities’ food systems. The gardens have provided purpose, connection and joy for people for over 20 years. This sudden decision will destroy businesses and deeply affect families In The community .
We call on the Rcd and the San Diego county to make this a transition to another non profit or to the community instead of a complete closure . Thanks for your time. Please share asap!! #
