Pogo Park transforms broken and little-used city parks in one of America’s toughest inner-city neighborhoods, Richmond, California’s “Iron Triangle,” into safe, green, beautiful public spaces for children to play. We are working, in a rare and deep partnership, alongside community residents to transform Elm Playlot, a small (½ acre), little-used, city park that lies in the middle of Richmond’s Iro

n Triangle neighborhood –– a once-proud, inner-city neighborhood that now suffers from deep poverty, violent crime, widespread blight, and a pervasive sense of hopelessness.

Richmond, We've got exciting news! 🌱

Planting Justice & Pogo Park are teaming up to bring farm-fresh, organic produce right to your doorstep.

Every Monday from 1 PM - 5 PM there will be a Mobile Farmers' Market at Elm Playlot selling fresh fruits and vegetables at a sliding scale. So only pay what you can!

All produce are locally sourced from Planting Justice Mother Farm and Farmers' Market in El Sobrante.

We are so excited to make healthy, nutritious food more accessible to the Iron Triangle community — and we hope to see you next Monday!

Tenemos noticias emocionantes...

Hemos formado una alianza para llevar productos agrícolas frescos y asequibles directamente al vecindario de Triángulo de Hierro de Richmond. A partir del 8 de Junio, Planting Justice estableceran un mercado agrícola móvil en Elm Playlot (Pogo Park #1) todos los Lunes, de 1 PM a 5 PM

Ofreceremos a los residentes productos frescos y orgánicos bajo un modelo de pago según sus posibilidades. De verdad. ¿Por qué es importante esto? El vecindario de Triángulo de Hierro está clasificado a nivel federal como un "desierto alimentario". Los residentes de esta comunidad tienen acceso limitado a alimentos frescos, saludables y asequibles.

Estamos cambiando esta situación al hacer que los productos nutritivos sean más accesibles en un espacio de reunión comunitaria de confianza para las familias locales.

¡Nos vemos el Lunes!
