City Slicker Farms

The City of Oakland selected City Slicker Farms to convert two neighboring City Parks, totaling one acre, into a Community Urban Farm. The farm will provide organic food for low-income residents; serve as an open gathering space for community events; provide school-farm visits and after school programs for Oakland children and youth to learn about ecology, gardening, and composting; and provide open green space for residents, especially children who are currently absent from the park.
