Oak Park party highlights urban agriculture

With all the problems the Oak Park is facing, and beleaguered by an ongoing gang war, residents were uplifted at a party organized to promote solidarity and active involvement in the community. Two neighborhood farming organizations are encouraging cleaning up and building gardens, in an effort to promote neighborhood unity. “We eventually want to have everyone participating in vacant lot cleanups, and in the end turn those lots into gardens. It all depends on what the people want.”  The event was summed up on Access Sacramento.
