Now through Monday, Sept. 1st: visit us at Slow Food Nation in San Francisco!

City Slicker Farms has partnered with Slow Food Nation and Garden for the Environment to transform the lawn in front of San Francisco's City Hall into the "Slow Food Nation Victory Garden". With limited funds and an outpouring of volunteer assistance, we grew nearly all the plants for the Victory Garden, planted the garden, and are providing weekly docents to educate the public on urban gardening and farming. We are also providing technical assistance to Garden for the Environment's "Victory Gardens 2008" Program, a pilot project funded by the City of San Francisco to support the transition of backyard, front yard, window boxes, rooftops, and unused land into organic food production areas. Come visit us at our Victory Garden at San Francisco City Hall this summer, and at our booth at "Slow Food Nation" at Fort Mason on Labor Day weekend!
