Listen: Shawn Harrison, Founder and Co-Director of Soil Born Farms in the City of Rancho Cordova.
Our mission is to create an urban agriculture and education project that empowers youth and adults to discover and participate in a local food system that encourages healthy living, nurtures the environment and grows a sustainable community.
Party at the Farm
A Fundraiser for Soil Born Farms
You’re Invited!
Join us for a joyful evening under the stars as we celebrate 25 years of growing food, community, and connection at the beautiful American River Ranch.
It all started with a note in a mailbox and the simple idea to bring farming back to the city. Twenty five years later Soil Born Farms has grown into a community treasure and a nationally recognized center for food, health & the environment.
We are hosting a party to celebrate this important milestone. This fundraiser will benefit our Youth Education programs. We touch the lives of over 60,000 students each year, from toddlers to college students through on-farm activities, school gardens and salad bars, teen empowerment & job training and internships.
