The Bayview-Hunters Point neighborhood is defined as a #FoodDesert, where access to a variety of fresh and healthy produce is extremely limited. At Florence Fang Community Farm, we’re passionate about #FoodSecurity and #FoodSovereignty. It’s important to understand these concepts in order to create change in our communities: - Food security refers to the direct availability, accessibility, and affordability of food for all individuals. - Alternatively, food sovereignty goes past accessibility by focusing on communities’ ability to control their own food systems, helping them take control of production, distribution, and the variety of culturally-appropriate and preferred produce. At the farm, we value food security through our weekly Saturday Food Pantry and #Partnership with SF-Marin Food Bank. Additionally, we also prioritize food sovereignty with our #Community and #PublicAccess farm. We encourage all members in our community to grow the veggies they cherish. We’re helping make impactful change one step at a time! We’d love to have you join our journey. Please consider contributing to our farm by volunteering or making a donation. 🌎💗 https://lnkd.in/gBV9R9M3 #NonProfit #SocialImpact #Change
