About Marra Farm
Food justice is about more than addressing hunger – it means all communities have access to the resources they need to know, grow and eat healthy food. Solid Ground’s Marra Farm, a ¾-acre Giving Garden on historic urban farmland in South Park, grows more than 15,000 pounds of fresh, organic produce each year. The food grown at Marra Farm stays in South Park and nourishes the community through food banks, meal programs, and a Work Trade program.
