ABOUT US
Florence Fang Community Farm (FFCF) is an organic farm and ecosystem located in the heart of Bayview Hunters Point in southeast San Francisco, the most diverse and underserved area of the city. Launched in 2014, FFCF has become San Francisco's largest, second-most productive, most diverse urban community farm, and the city's first farm operation certified by the USDA. Our one-acre farm is located on top of a functioning Caltrain tunnel and surrounded by a dense population of diverse residents, with views of Candlestick Park and San Bruno Mountain.
Our farm is a living and breathing showcase of how gardening design, farming techniques, and biodiversity can be shared and celebrated across cultures and differences, primarily those that reflect our residents and participants. We aim to improve food security, increase healthy living habits, practice natural farming techniques, improve the environment, support neighborhood economic opportunity, and increase social connectedness within and between communities of color. Our farm also supports our community's food sovereignty by providing a food source that is consistent with cultural identities and involving community networks that promote self-reliance and mutual aid. Since our groundbreaking, we have expanded our mission to focus on the wider intergenerational and ethnic diversity that defines our local community by bringing together a network of community groups and residents around policy issues of environmental sustainability, cultural diversity, and healthy living activities and eating practices.
