Hands On Sacramento Day Renovates Non Profit's Urban Farm for Healthy Communities


Hands On Sacramento Day Renovates Non Profit's Urban Farm for Healthy Communities:

"'Unlike many places around the world, we still have the unique capacity to feed ourselves and create sustainability around good, locally grown food,' explains Shawn Harrison, Executive Director & Co-Founder of Soil Born Farms Urban Agriculture Project. 'Preserving and nourishing this rare opportunity now may be the most important long term health decision we make as a community.'

Community leaders including Mayor Kevin Johnson, Karen Baker with CaliforniaVolunteers, corporate leaders and employees across the Sacramento region came together for this important cause to help support healthy communities and low-cost food sources in our local area."
