WHAT THEY SAY
“Thank you for such a wonderful tour of the CGC! It was great to hear from so many dynamic voices! It is so meaningful to see all of the different aspects of food security that the CGC is addressing, from food recovery, to the reFresh program, to maintaining the urban farms. The students were very moved by the experience, and we would love to discuss future collaborations.”
Kym Chi, Dean School of Permaculture Design 
“I brought my niece in to volunteer at the farm the other day, and it was a really beautiful experience. She really got into the spirit of what was going on at the farm, and the two of us had a special day together, harvesting and planting”

“We love having this farm in the neighborhood, it’s so nice to have a place to come and get fresh healthy food, and it is a lovely place to walk by every morning. It’s always good to see things growing.”
