see you tomorrow !!

Tomorrow is the day!
After you are finished ordering all your Cyber Monday goodies today we will see you tomorrow at Long Beach Creamery !

If you follow Farm Lot 59 on Facebook or FarmerSash on Instagram you probably saw the video I took of our farm yesterday morning. We were vandalized again, this time was the worst in terms of property value, plants, seedlings and microgreens being destroyed. We were able to clean most of it up yesterday and will finish this week. Its not the end of the farm but it is sure a set back. Winter is a slow time for us in terms of growing and money is especially tight this time of year.

Help us put some sugar on this crappy thing that happened to us. Come to our Ice Cream Fundraiser tomorrow and indulge yourself for a good cause. 

See you at Long Beach Creamery!

Thank you!!
This holiday I'm reflecting on the growth of our little farm. In 2010 I had a vision to build an urban farm in central Long Beach. Some people didn't understand why I would want to do that. What's the point?

But most of you got excited! You came and picked up trash, planted trees, schlepped manure, moved hay bales, laid irrigation, built greenhouses, fed chickens, mucked coops, bounced babies, worked in the store, held classes, delivered produce, washed dishes, and planted seeds. 

We have accomplished so much in these 6 quick years. Without you Farm Lot 59 would not be the urban agriculture hub that it is. So many great businesses and friendships have grown from the farm. Its not just producing salad mixes and herbs but lives are transformed here. I know it sounds dramatic but I never imagined that having a working farm in the city would be so nostalgic and healing for so many. 

We do it because of you and I'm so Thankful. Everyone is asking for donations this time of year. When you are deciding where to give consider supporting your local farm. When you keep your dollars local it supports your community and the people that live here. Farm Lot 59 is YOUR local farm!

Thank you!!



I am so grateful to everyone who ventured out on that stormy Sunday (just kidding, it did rain for a few minutes though) and participated in our Moveable Feast. And especially THANK YOU to Taste wine beer kitchen and also to The Wine Country for generously donating all the staff, food and drink for the event. It was so fun. 

Because of all of you we were able to raise $3,800 to benefit our Outdoor Classroom and education programs at Farm Lot 59. 

Thank you for supporting agriculture in the city of Long Beach, you are amazing!
