About the Farm
Background
Silver Lake Farms has established itself as a unique urban farm, cultivating a variety of crops on less than an acre of land near Downtown Los Angeles. Over the years, it has become known for its vibrant cut flowers, which are grown without the use of pesticides or chemicals. The farm also supports local agriculture through its CSA program, connecting families with fresh, locally grown produce.
Practices
The farm employs natural farming methods, eschewing pesticides and chemicals in favor of compost and compost teas that enrich the soil's biology. This approach not only nurtures the plants but also fosters a healthier ecosystem. By focusing on soil health, the farm ensures that its flowers, loofah sponges, and microgreens are both high-quality and environmentally friendly.
The Rest
In addition to its farming activities, Silver Lake Farms offers a range of services to the local community. The Garden Guru team designs, installs, and maintains edible gardens for clients throughout Los Angeles, helping families grow their own food in their backyards. The farm's commitment to local agriculture is further demonstrated through its CSA program, which promotes and supports family farms in LA and neighboring counties.
