Let’s grow local food together.
OUR MISSON
As a community, we can grow a resilient and equitable local food system, growing food through regenerative organic practices that are both better for us and better for the planet.
Ready to grow your own delicious organic food?
DON’T STRESS. WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER.
Whether we designed your edible garden or you already have one, we're here to help you succeed. We offer a variety of options to get you growing and enjoying fresh, organic produce straight from your backyard. Please read through the options below and then set up a consultation to get growing!
What you can grow.
In the Bay Area, we are lucky to have mild temperatures that allow us to extend growing seasons longer than other regions. Some items grow almost year-round, such as lettuce and leafy greens. If you love salad, we can build you a salad bar you can pick fresh from daily!
Here is a sampling of annual produce that does well in our growing zone. This is not an exhaustive list, and there are some differences between what grows best in bay-side vs. inland locations. We’ll discuss a broader list in your initial consultation.
We can also plant perennial herbs, berries, fruit trees, and pollinator plants around your annual garden to encourage a diverse ecosystem for birds, butterflies, and insects.
