Mahogany Hill

I met Farmer Chippy, Farmer T and Farmer Natasha. They're a brilliant team of knowledgeable Urban Farmers working on improving "Cleaner Greener" food security, empowering other Urban Farmers and educating youth on food growth, entrepreneurship and emotional/financial independence. They serve souls made from garden harvest daily and can always use a little extra help. These community gems can be supported through donations, volunteerism and purchasing from their farmer's market.

You gotta show up early to truly get the advantage. However, I went to both locations and was able to get: eggplant & carrots (see pic for what I did), red: (pears potatoes and bell peppers), butternut squash, chicken broth, fresh bread and muffins, starfruit, bib lettuce, tomatoes and more. There were also asparagus and other fruit/veggies. ...some items were bruised, of course, but if you're bothered by FREE bruised food, you can pay for the unbruised lot at the store.

I was able to collect 2 grocery bags for a needy family and some items for myself. Most items are unlimited so u can get as many as you like. I'll be back next Wed.

I traveled from East to West Bmore for playtime. The children were able to try many different activities (sliding, climbing, bouncing, spinning, running and swinging to name a few). There is a raised platform area between the playground and the community farm (I've used the farm several times this year). The children enjoyed their time and didn't want to leave. The area is surrounded by affluent homes, dilapidated homes and buildings under development. So, you'll see many walks of life strolling through the area. Everyone we saw was respectful or just minded their business. We will go again.
