Discover the enchanting world of interconnectedness at Coastal Roots Farm's Tu B'Shvat Food Forest Festival!

Just as in the Food Forest, where the right combination allows for growth, so too does our community flourish when we come together. Every relationship, whether between roots or individuals, fosters growth, awareness, and consciousness. It's a reminder that we don't exist in isolation but rather as part of a larger, interconnected whole.

Hunger and climate change are two of the most perv

Hunger and climate change are two of the most pervasive issues of today. More than a quarter of San Diegans face food insecurity, and our changing climate poses real risks to the life we currently know.

But at Coastal Roots Farm, we believe in "Tikkun Olam" (healing the world), an ancient Jewish concept that reminds us of three things: 1) this world CAN be repaired; 2) humans have the capacity to repair; and 3) this is the only world we get.

Last year, we grew nearly 80,000 pounds of organic food for more than 45,000 people using regenerative agriculture that reverses the impacts of climate change. We donated 83% of our harvest to feed those in need and diverted over 300,000 pounds of waste from the landfill.

With your help, we can create healthy soil that makes healthy plants to support the health of our neighbors and climate.

This #GivingTuesday, join us in repairing the world. $150,000 feeds 9,000 local families with regeneratively-grown, organic produce from Coastal Roots Farm. Every amount – whether $5 or $500 – will be matched, feeding 18,000 local families in need. Donate today at the link in bio!

Tomorrow is #GivingTuesday.

Hunger continues to affect nearly 1 in 4 people in the county who lack access to healthy food.

At Coastal Roots Farm, we grow regenerative, organic, nutrient-dense food for community members who need it most all while reversing the impacts of climate change. We feed our neighbors while healing our planet.

We're raising $150,000 to continue this important work. Thanks to a matching donation, your gift goes twice as far! Every gift made until December 31st will be doubled. Give one day early at the link in bio!

Agriculture and land use alone account for nearly

Agriculture and land use alone account for nearly a quarter of total greenhouse emissions, and conventional agriculture is largely to blame. Practices such as tilling, use of harmful chemicals, genetic modification, and monocropping contribute to the decline of our precious soil and ecosystems.

But the solution is just below our feet. Regenerative agriculture cultivates healthy soil to care for people and planet, increasing nutritional content and drawing carbon out of the atmosphere.

At Coastal Roots Farm, we understand the importance of caring for our limited natural resources. This year we regeneratively-grew nearly 80,000 pounds of food for more than 45,000 community members.

Healthy soil, healthy plants, healthy people, healthy climate. Donate today at the link in bio!

The ways we understand our history evolves. For some, this day is filled with gratitude. For others, this day is rooted in generations of trauma. We are committed to learning, listening, and wish those who do celebrate a meaningful Thanksgiving.

In our San Diego community, where nearly 1 in 4 are struggling with food insecurity, our work is more important than ever. Seniors, indigenous peoples, and children are among those who suffer most.

Coastal Roots Farm feeds low-income seniors, Indigenous/Native community members, active-duty military and veterans, Holocaust survivors, families, and children with regeneratively-grown produce. We feed our neighbors while healing our planet.

Nobody should wonder where their next meal is coming from. Donate this Giving Tuesday to nourish your neighbor today at the link in bio!

At Coastal Roots Farm, we envision a regenerative and nourishing food system that cares for all people and our precious planet.

Inspired by the interconnectedness of "Adam v'Adamah" (humanity and earth), this year we grew nearly 80,000 pounds of organic food using climate-smart agriculture.

Because of our commitment to "Arevut" (mutual care), we fed over 45,000 people and donated 83% of our harvest to those in need.

#GivingTuesday is 1 week from today. Give early and join us as we feed and nurture our land, soil, and neighbors. Donate at the link in bio!

Need something to smile about?
Meet Herbert, Our Pay-What-You-Can Farm Stand ambassador and mascot! He was gifted to the Farm Stand by a small child with a big heart and has been working hard each week to proudly display Farm-fresh favorites. He has also tirelessly charmed the hearts of visitors and staff.

Next time you come and visit the Farm Stand, be sure to say "Hi" to Herbert! He's kinda of a big dill.
