Join the Planting Justice Mother Farm team at our 4-acre orchard and food forest in El Sobrante at 10:00am on Thursday, Sept. 24 for a farm tour and tasting of our pawpaws and other fall fruit. It's a fundraiser and fun-raiser celebrating the fruit grown at the Planting Justice Mother Farm in El Sobrante!
The 6-member PJ Mother Farm team nurtures two trees / bushes of each variety to grow scion and cutting wood for propagation at our East Oakland Nursery, so we're able to grow over 1,000 varieties of fruit on limited land, and the fruit from our pairs is a bonus to share with our community, distribute to neighbors in need, and even turn into preserved foods like jams and butters.
We'll start at 10:00am with a short tour of the PJ Mother Farm–a unique urban farm with fab views of Mt. Tam–then we'll enjoy the many varieties of pawpaws, jujubes, pineapple guavas, chilean guavas, prickly pears, and pomegranates. We’ll also have farm jams and possibly some farm honey available for sale! The event is limited to 40 people, and is on a sliding scale to assist access and opportunity to support our work.
Directions and tasting information will be emailed to you after registration. For questions or ways to support, please contact Julio Madrigal at: julio@plantingjustice.org
