Your support will be used to develop the capacity of West Contra Costa to grow more of its own food. Your dollars will help develop projects like Berryland, Lincoln School Farm, and the 5% Local Coalition. (more…)

Please join the 5% Local Coalition on the Richmond Greenway on January 21st from 9:00 to 12:30. We will honor the legacy of Dr. King by hosting work parties at Berryland, Lincoln School Farm, and the Greenway Swales.

Meet at 6th Street and the Greenway (between Chanslor and Ohio) right near Lincoln Elementary School in Richmond. Please wear sturdy shoes and work clothes. We will provide tools, gloves, and nourishing refreshments made from food grown right here in West County. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
