Dig Deep Farms is a program of the Alameda County Deputy Sheriffs’ Activities League (DSAL) that has been funded by Kaiser Permanente and the San Francisco Foundation’s Koshland Fellows. This program has multiple purposes:

• Employ local people to work on the Urban Farming Team
• Turn unused and blighted properties into beautiful farms and higher valued space
• Sell locally-grown produce back to the community at an affordable price to encourage health, nutrition and the overall support of community-based food production
• Use all revenue to continue paying people to work and hopefully employ more people over time in this green movement
• Engage the community in the process of beautifying, caring for and eating from their very own local land

Becoming a part of our Dig Deep Farm enterprise will not only help to bring locally grown, fresh produce into your home, but it will connect you to a greater mission of preventing violence, crime and other negative behaviors by employing and engaging local residents in growing community from the roots.
