About this Event

Join our next Arif Urban Agrarian Collective (AUAC) Workday at the Peace Garden!

Growing season is in full swing and we are still working on establishing more beds at the farm, come through!!

This month we will have Palestine Pals San Diego who will cover how to be an ally in the liberation of Palestine. We will explore how to leverage your skills to advocate and organize actions/events for Palestine and all oppressed peoples.

Palestine Pals San Diego started in San Diego, CA in October of 2023. We are a fully volunteer based organization seeking to spread awareness and support of Palestine. Our mission is to unite and empower a global community in support of Palestine, advocating for the rights and well-being of its people through education, community engagement, and grassroots initiatives. By fostering a diverse and inclusive family of allies, we aim to amplify palestinian voices, address historical and ongoing injustices, and work towards a future of peace and equity.

Make sure to bring a food container, utensils, and a cup to help us minimize waste!

We will have more water and restrooms on site!

Growing a New Food System in San Diego

Our founding farmers blend East African agricultural practices with decades of experience growing in San Diego. We teach, grow food, and develop agricultural knowledge directly with the community. All from our 8,000 square foot garden and 60-tree orchard.

Learn to make compost, start seeds, and start farming wherever you have space. Join us in growing a new food system in San Diego.

The food we grow nourishes our community directly. Our crop is collectively managed from seed to sprout to harvest and donated directly to community members, local food pantries, and mutual aid organizations.
