Friends of Alemany Farm is a group that manages the horticulture, volunteer, and educational programs at Alemany Farm, a 3.5 acre organic farm ecosystem in southeast San Francisco. The farm sits on the unceded ancestral homeland of the Ramaytush Ohlone peoples who are the original inhabitants of the San Francisco Peninsula, and the original stewards of this land. Thanks to the participation and support of many, the farm is a home to a thriving, dynamic bio-intensive mix of organic vegetables, orchards, native plant zones, vineyard, herb garden, naturalized open space, a seasonal wetland, and a freshwater pond. Our Mission Friends of Alemany Farm grows food security and educates local residents about how they can become their own food producers. We strive to increase ecological knowledge and habitat value, and to sow the seeds for economic and environmental justice. All of the food we grow is given away for free to neighbors, volunteers, The Free Farm Stand, and other groups. We pursue four main goals: -Fostering Environmental Education by introducing children and adults to the idea that local food production can be part of a healthy ecosystem, and inspiring visitors to start their own gardens at home. -Boosting Food Security by providing organic, healthy food to community members. -Growing Leaders through the communal ethic of the barn-raising that encourages people to play an active role in decision-making. -Promoting Ecological-Economic Development by using urban agriculture as a way to develop job skills.
