Hayes Valley Farm

Hayes Valley Farm is a City funded, Parks Trust sponsored, Volunteer driven project working to build an education facility and research center with a focus on Mayor Newsom's directive "Healthy and Sustainable Food for San Francisco."

• Education and Green Job Cultivation
• Research and Innovation on Tools & Techniques for Sustainable Urban Agriculture
• 45,000 square feet of gardening
• Freeway Food Forest including 150 fruit trees over 2000 plants
• Plant Nursery
• Site-based and Community-based programming

Hayes Valley Farm is located at 450 Laguna Street (between Fell & Oak) in the center of San Francisco.
