Projects
Resilient Roots Collective
Resilient Roots Collective is a group of food activists that work closely with several local nonprofits to turn food waste into hot meals for homeless encampments. This project was started at the Makerfarm, and is possible because of the resources available at the Makerfarm and the community that the space has created.
Compost Hub
(Out of compost! Will update here when the compost returns!)
Creating literal tons of free compost has benefited hundreds of local gardens. Our recipe of spent brewer’s grain, excess vegetables, wood chips, and animal manure yields some very fine dirt!
Chicken and Duck
Welcoming visitors to the farm is our flock of rescued, incubated, and free-hatched chickens and ducks. They peck and roam all day to provide us with eggs and endless entertainment.
Farmcycles 🚲
The Farmcycle community bike shop is keeping Alameda Point residents riding smoothly and safely with monthly repair clinics and regular tool access.
Get Involved
Here are a few ways you can join the community of farmers and makers:
