Imagine a thriving organic farm nestled in the heart of the city where students and community members work together to create a magical space that cultivates respect for the environment. The Farm will provide urban students and the community, who have little or no access to local, organic produce, an opportunity to engage in a hands-on education in sustainable agriculture, health, nutrition, and leadership. Interested gardeners will be able to participate in an entrepreneurial activity while they’re obtaining meaningful work experience. Students will learn directly form organic farmers and then share the bounty of the farm with the community.

Scholarships
Urban Farm Scholarships are available to SDCCD, SDHS and Garfield High students. Award winners must commit to learning and working in the Farm 10-12 hours/week for 8 weeks this summer under the guidance of local organic farmers. Please download the application.
