It’s Juneteenth—take some time to learn and donate to The Okra Project (https://www.theokraproject.com), a collective that provides resources and home-cooked meals to Black trans people. We also wrote a little blog post about okra’s uses and it’s history in the US: https://www.pomona.edu/farm/farm-blog/posts/okra-how-it-got-united-states-how-grow-it-and-how-eat-it

The Okra Project is a collective that seeks to address the global crisis faced by Black Trans people by bringing home cooked, healthy, and culturally specific meals and resources to Black Trans People wherever we can reach them.

Save your vegetable scraps to make delicious stock!

If you’re a friend of the Farm, you probably share our aversion to food waste. Rather than composting or trashing my vegetable scraps, I save them and turn them into vegetable stock.

Grilled pizza is a Farm staple! Read more about it on our blog!

The Farm’s outdoor kitchen has no oven, but it does have a grill! Over the years, we have adapted many recipes to work on our grill, and grilled pizza has become a staple.
