The South Central Farmers are asking members of the progressive community to establish phone trees to mobilize activists across the city to defend their beloved and family-sustaining 14-acre farm at 41st and Long Beach Ave. For the last 13 years, these working class Latino families have tilled what was once an abandoned, garbage- and rat-infested lot into a inspirational garden that feeds and sustains over 360 families! The developer could show up with bulldozers at any time to raze the urban gardens to replace them with a CRA-subsidized warehouse. please email me your names and phone numbers to join the phone tree: nevitate@gmail.com

The farmers are on RED ALERT!! On Tuesday, November 8, Ralph Horowitz will most likely get full property
rights to the farm, and he told the LA Times recently
that he would get the sheriff to "throw off" the
farmers from the land. He plans to destroy the farm
and build a warehouse, despite the fact that the farm
has fed low-income families for 13 years.
