In Arleta, a 5,500 square foot lot was transformed into a collective backyard farm 🥬
Excerpt from the story ⬇️
“The backyard farm was SOW’s first community initiative.
The farm was assembled using second-hand and reclaimed materials that were donated from the community.
When Gomez and her fellow co-owners were filling their cars with manure at Lopez Canyon, they met serendipitously with Steve List, an educator from Sylmar High School. List donated garden bed supplies from the high school to SOW.
The farm contains 11 garden beds growing fruits, vegetables, greens, herbs and flowers. SOW uses sustainable practices to care for their garden, such as the no-till method, drip irrigation, composting and mulching.
“Our goal is to be as sustainable, as frugal, as resourceful as possible, using the resources that we have around us,” Gomez said.”

🐑 Nature’s little helpers 🐑
In one of the photo essays in this issue, see how sheep can be used as natural lawnmowers to mitigate the spread of wildfire.
In the photos above, sheep from Cuyama Lamb, LLC can be seen grazing the dry vegetation at Elings Park in Santa Barbara, Calif., on Thursday, April 21, 2022.

Our first story in this semester’s issue is about tree planting and urban cooling 🌳
Excerpt from the story ⬇️
CEO Cindy Montañez said that planting trees is vital to saving people’s lives.
“Because trees function like an air conditioner, where they allow cool air from the soil to go up into the air, the leaves and branches help maintain cooler temperatures and protect people,” Montañez said. “What we have found is that more people die during extreme heat than any other weather related disaster combined. And that’s why we as TreePeople have made it a priority to plant as many trees as we possibly can.”
