APIQWTC Volunteers! Those that love being outdoors with your hands in the soil! Looking for a good reason to wear those hiking boots, grubby pants and hat? Want to see what your food looked like before it was in neat rows at the farmers market?
Come volunteer with your community and the greater community at Alemany Farm, walking distance from the Glen Park Bart Station.
Please let me know if you plan to attend!
I will need you to sign a waiver prior to event.

Our Mission
Friends of Alemany Farm grows food security and educates local residents about how they can become their own food producers. We strive to increase ecological knowledge and habitat value, and to sow the seeds for economic and environmental justice.
WHAT TO BRING:
1. Water Bottle
2. Hat
3. Sturdy Shoes
4. Jacket with layered clothing underneath
5. Sunscreen
6. Snacks
7. A bag (to bring home some produce)
**Travel light! The farm is an open public space and we have no secure storage for bags. Leave valuables at home and be mindful of your personal belongings, as you would in any park setting.
By BART: Glen Park is the closest BART station. It is a 15 minute walk or 5 minute bike to the farm. When exiting the station, cross Bosworth St, then turn right on Bosworth and follow it under the overpass. Bear left and follow Bosworth several blocks to Mission St. Cross Mission and head east on Murray St for 3 blocks until it ends at the entrance to Saint Mary’s Rec Center. Just inside the park entrance gate take an immediate right and follow the paved drive down the hill past the playground and the dog run, then bear left and down the walkway ramp to Alemany Blvd. The pedestrian gate to Alemany Farm is a few feet to the left.
Via bus from the Mission/Downtown SF: Take a 14 or 49 bus southbound on Mission Street to Bosworth (several blocks past 30th St). Cross Mission to Murray Street, then proceed along Murray and continue to the farm as described above.
