About this Event
Join our next Arif Urban Agrarian Collective (AUAC) Workday at the Peace Garden!
Come through for our last big workday of 2026 for a massive native planting as we continue to expand on our restoration of the land!
The November skillshare will be led by the San Diego Community Wealth Building Coalition (SDCWBC), who will discuss their amazing efforts! SDCWBC is activating and partnering with fellow everyday San Diegans to promote and help expand community wealth-building models, including community land trusts and housing, worker, grocery, and agricultural cooperatives. They do this collectively, alongside the residents and organizations most affected, through educational workshops and presentations, coalition and capacity building, policy recommendations and advocacy, consultation and technical assistance, and resource sharing.
Lunch will be served by the incredible Dollar Lunch Club crew!
Make sure to bring a food container, utensils, and a cup to help us minimize waste!
We will have more water and restrooms on site!
More on AUAC:
Growing a New Food System in San Diego
Our founding farmers blend East African agricultural practices with decades of experience growing in San Diego. We teach, grow food, and develop agricultural knowledge directly with the community. All from our 8,000 square foot garden and 60-tree orchard.
Learn to make compost, start seeds, and start farming wherever you have space. Join us in growing a new food system in San Diego.
The food we grow nourishes our community directly. Our crop is collectively managed from seed to sprout to harvest and donated directly to community members, local food pantries, and mutual aid organizations.
