I've happened on the Garfield Community Farm farm stand the past two Thursdays. They have a small farm stand every Thursday from 4 - 7 in front of the Penn Aiken Dairy on Penn Avenue near Graham St. The produce is organic and varied and lovely. Check out their website: http://garfieldfarm.com/ and stop by the stand to support local efforts to improve our neighborhoods. During the winter of 2008 a group from The Open Door Presbyterian Church, in partnership with Valley View Presbyterian Church, began making plans to do organic gardening on abandoned or unused land in East Liberty and Garfield. Our plans focused on beginning the reclamation of nearly three acres near the water tower in Garfield and small scale food production at two smaller gardens, one in Garfield at Valley View Presbyterian Church and one at the Union Project in Highland Park. Our two small gardens were successful teaching tools for community and congregation members. We have also been successful in working with the City of Pittsburgh and the URA in creating a process that will result in the permanent rezoning of nearly three acres of land in Garfield as permanent “Green Space” which will be stewarded by the members of Garfield Community Farm, neighborhood volunteers, and volunteers through our partnership with Open Hand Ministries.
