The Growing Experience

By: Ana Salatino (Mar 28, 2011)
As a CSA: The weekly boxes are great, and always present me with a new fruit or veggie to try. The share is generous, and we love that Jimmy helped others in my area coordinate pick-ups so that we have less cars driving up to the farm every week.

But, the Growing Experience is so much more than a CSA! I'm thrilled to be taking a new gardening class being offered. Also, Jimmy is always working on festivals and seasonal events to welcome newcomers and community members to the farm.

Food isn't the only thing growing here (although it's certainly good & plenty) :) The Growing Experience is a place of growth, both in the personal and in the communal realm!

cheers!

thank you for your post. i'm excitedt that i've found this website and this farm. i'm new to the long beach area; i bought my first house not far from this farm last year. tried some gardening over the summer but didn't do too well. i'm excited to get more involved in my community and learn more about sustainable agriculture, more about what i can do at my house and for my community!
