SUMMARY:ASCFG Farm Tour: Farm Lot 59
DESCRIPTION:Quick Details \n\nHost: Sasha Kanno\nAddress: 2714 California Ave.\, Long Beach\, California\nWebsite: www.farmlot59.org\nDate and Time: May 23\, 2023\, from 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.\nAttendance Cap: Limited to 100 attendees. Lunch included.\n\nFrom the Host \nFarm Lot 59 is a 501(c)3 working urban farm that specializes in growing rare and unusual varieties of flowers and organic vegetables. We envision a world where we serve as a center for community engagement and wellness – it is not our farm\, it is yours. We provide a local Food Hub with the vegetables we grow. Our goal is to serve vulnerable populations in our community\, to help with immediate food needs\, and inspire them to eat and live healthily. We use our diverse farm to host educational\, volunteer\, and other events that bring together our community to learn about the benefits and possibilities of urban farming and so much more. We fund our efforts through our Farmstand sales of the unique flowers we grow\, and through generous donations. \nOur year-round farming operation has two high tunnels\, drip irrigation\, grey water produce washing station\, and rain barrels to collect water. Our practice is minimal till to no-till. We use cover cropping\, tarping\, and have a shed full of small farm tools. \nSasha Kanno is the founder and farmer of Farm Lot 59. Before it was founded in 2010 Sasha was a floral designer working in film and for prestigious shops in LA and OC. Her designs have been featured in People magazine\, The Knot\, and other publications. She has been awarded numerous grants and awards for her work in the community as a leader\, innovator\, and driving force in the local food and floral movement. She is a member of Slow Flowers\, the Association of Specialty Cut Growers\, and an active member of the USDA Farm Service Agency County Committee serving Los Angeles County. \nAttendees will be able to see our off-season greenhouse improvements (version 5.0 ) and how we grow in our two high tunnels. By the end of May\, we will be wrapping up spring and planting our first round of summer annuals. We look forward to sharing with you! \nRegister
