[Taking Action] Please help save the South-Central Farm

.




IN THE MIDDLE OF INDUSTRIAL SOUTH-CENTRAL LOS ANGELES THERE IS A 14-ACRE COMMUNITY FARM. IT IS THOUGHT TO BE THE LARGEST URBAN FARM IN THE U.S.

THE FARM PROVIDES 350 LOW-INCOME, URBAN FAMILIES A SMALL PATCH OF GREEN FOR GROWING FOOD.

BUT NOW, THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES HAS SOLD THE PROPERTY AND THE NEW OWNERS WANT TO EVICT THE GARDENERS.

UNLESS, THEY CAN RAISE ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY THE FARM BACK.

PLEASE DONATE TODAY AND HELP SAVE THE SOUTH-CENTRAL COMMUNITY FARM. TIME IS RUNNING OUT.




This plea was re-printed by Rachael from Fresh Approach Cooking

UPDATE - The farmers lost and were evicted 6/13/06. Sigh.
