<\/a>This half-day study tour will explore both the history and future of urban agriculture with a focus on Oakland\u2019s vital urban agriculture movement. We will explore how community-driven urban agricultural groups, soil remediation projects, and new zoning initiatives are reintroducing gardens and farming to older and historic neighborhoods. Join us as we visit City Slicker Farms, a working community farm in the West Oakland neighborhood and other community gardens to learn cutting-edge lead remediation work to reintroduce safe gardens and agricultural uses in Alameda County neighborhoods.
