Thanking our loyal Soul Food CSA customers
The Soul Food Farm CSA launched October 7, 2009 with our first delivery at my house in Emeryville, during a very difficult time — about a month after the devastating fire that crippled the farm.

Soul Food Farm video: Rising from the ash
At the chicken house building workday a few weekends ago, filmmaker Thomas Richardson interviewed Alexis and shot this 8-minute video about the farm’s fire and the rebuilding efforts. The physical structures are, of course, the easier things to replace. The 30 acres of singed pasture will take a season to recover (while temporary replacement ones [...]

Café Rouge benefit dinner *canceled* :-(
Sept 30 Update: We have just heard that the Cafe Rouge benefit dinner has been canceled, due to unforeseen circumstances and slow ticket sales. This is very disappointing — the menu looked great, and we had high hopes for raising funds from it.
