The Berkeley Basket

The farm has become a cornerstone of the community, known for its close proximity to its members, many of whom walk just a few blocks to pick up their weekly vegetables. Although the pandemic has temporarily halted public events, the farm has a history of hosting potlucks and garden work days, fostering a strong sense of community.

The farm nurtures its produce from seed to harvest, adhering to organic growing methods. This approach ensures that the vegetables and fruits are cultivated without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, maintaining a harmonious relationship with the earth.

The farm offers a diverse range of produce including leeks, radishes, edible flowers, kale, sunflower shoots, lettuce, mint tea, turnips, broccoli, green onions, apples, lemons, flowers, tomatoes, pineapple guava, cabbage, and winter squash.
