The Free Farm from Growing Cities Movie on Vimeo.

Check out our visit to the Free Farm right outside downtown San Francisco. This place is amazing! They grow tons of food right in the city and then give it away for free at the Free Farm Stand…no money involved whatsoever. A really amazing way to help feed people who need it most.

Pantry, a documentary

Someone recently sent me a link to this video that has was uploaded to YouTube in 2006. It is part of a documentary about a Food Pantry I ran for years a few blocks from where I live. I can’t believe I ran this program for so long. As much as I loved the work we were doing then and I thought what we were doing was beautiful, it was a bit out of control. We eventually evolved to what we are doing today at the Free Farm Stand. Things are changing and my fear is that we keep getting bigger and bigger and I hope we don’t get as crazy as that program was.

I just discovered this video. It was made by SFSU students in the Spring of 2010 for State of Events (http://www.stateofevents.tv/page/6/), a production of the Broadcast Electronic Communication Arts department at the College of Creative Arts San Francisco State University.
