In a nutshell, in 1992 the Meso-American community in South Central LA was given a rat infested, garbage strewn 14-acre lot by the city of LA. It was an effort to revive the battered community devastated by the riots that year. 350 poverty-level families were given plots to plant as a way to supplement donations from the LA Food Bank with home grown produce. The "South Central Farm" became the largest community garden in the US and was an oasis with more than 150 varieties of fruit trees, vegetables and medicinal herbs. It was a haven for the entire community with music, bar-b-ques, and more, that took place there on hot summer nights. Fourteen years later, in a suspicious deal, a real estate developer acquired the acres from the city and started eviction proceedings against farmers.

After spending an hour looking for Waldo (or was it Edgar?! ^_^)... Ai, Evelyn and I drove to the farm.   It was a good two hours of non-stop farm talkin’ + relaxing.


Greeted by Connie’s big, loud “welcome to the South Central Farm” we went right into cherry tomato picking with Alberto y Baldo.
