Alemany Farm is a project of the Alemany Resident Management Corporation,
a non-profit organization dedicated to improving conditions in the Alemany Community, a 165-unit public housing development beset by high unemployment and recurring violence. The Alemany Resident Management Corporation believes that we can address the root causes of violence by providing youth with meaningful opportunities for advancement. Our fiscal sponsor is Renaissance Parents of Success, a Bayview Hunters Point organization with a strong track record of helping at-risk teens.
To help fulfill our goals, we are working with volunteer gardeners from throughout San Francisco who are helping to share horticulture skills with Alemany residents.



Alemany Farm empowers San Francisco residents to grow their own food,
and through that process encourages people to become more engaged with their communities. We grow organic food and green jobs for low-income communities, while sowing the seeds for economic and environmental justice

Alemany Farm accomplishes this mission through four main goals:

1. Ecological-Economic Development: Growing jobs for Alemany residents.

2. Food Security: Providing organic, healthy food to local community members.

3. Environmental Education: Introducing children and adults to the wonders of the natural world and the importance of local food production.

4. Building People’s Power: Engaging residents in decision-making processes and activities that foster community involvement to organize for social, economic, and environmental justice.


To get involved, join us on one of our community workdays. Our volunteer days are the First and Third Sundays of every month, and the Saturdays in between.
