The Free Farm Stand

I love the generous spirit that all thing can be cost free.
Unfortunately this kind of capitalistic society we all pay for everything whether it deserves or not. This concept of capitalism has been so brutally cruel for most of us.
I love tree who runs this organization. He has a green sum.
Give away and give away bottomlessly — means can own everything in the end. We all have to involved in healthy organic vegie and gluten free food nowadays.
Bless this free spirit!

It is all FREE. It is incredible that such a place exist. San Francisco City is still a wonderful place. I have passed on your organization’s information to Blue Walcer, Founder and Director
of the CARE program at San Francisco General Hospital, working to give patients a greater role in their health care and health care decisions. Blue was the National Grand winner of the California Pacific Award for Excellence in Patient Education and received The American Cancer Society’s Quality of Life Award for her work with the CARE program. On behalf of my friends that are fighting for their wellness and striving for serenity, THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR EVERYONE AT FREE FARM STAND.

This is an absolutely amazing thing to offer the community. Huge thank you to those that put this on every week. I went there for the first time today to check it out and left with an reusable bag stuffed full of veggies and 3 different types of bread. Everyone working the stand was incredibly friendly. In days where so many low budget offerings consist of ramen noodles and mac ‘n cheese, the Free Farm Stand is helping keep things healthy!

FREE organic produce in San Francisco… um, what else do I need to say?!

One of the best ongoing projects that exists in San Francisco.
The goal of the Free Farm Stand says it all:
«help make locally grown, fresh and nutritious organic produce accessible to all, especially those families and individuals on low-​incomes and tight budgets.»
Which is exactly what it does.
Every Sunday you can find locally grown and gleaned produce from vegetables to fruit to herbs, sprouts and starts. Not to mention, incredible day old bread, honey at times and countless smiling humans (smiles are pretty much guaranteed.) Definitely a wonderful place to be.
Produce generally comes from local gardeners and organic farmers.
Check the website for plentiful volunteer opportunities.
Whether you have interest in getting your hands in some soil and helping out in a community garden or two
or
you have a garden and would like some help
or
you want garden advice/​help
or
you have an abundance of produce coming from your garden–
this is a wonderful place be, share and connect with the community. If the plethora of Tomatoes from my garden didn’t already get distributed among friends and neighbors, the Free Farm Stand is where you would get a chance to taste how delicious they are.
If I could give the Free Farm Stand more stars on Unilocal… You bet your beanstalk I would!
Thanks to Tree and all of the lovely people that help make the Free Farm Stand a reality and keep the community growing.

I live about two blocks away from the FreeFarmStand and stumbled upon it just a month ago (it’s been around for about a year). I thought, «How great, a farmers market in my neighborhood.» So I picked up a beautiful loaf of bread, some herbs, mixed greens, and then i asked, «How much for these?»
The response threw me for a loop and it truly did not compute for a moment. «Free?» And it was wild how this felt. Suddenly, I wasn’t worthy or in need enough. Maybe I was even embarrassed. But it’s simply free … for everyone.
And there is a bounty of beautiful, fresh, organic produce. I can’t believe this place isn’t swamped — with those in need, as well as those not so much in need.
It’s a really beautiful thing to see these days.

The free farm stand is a nonprofit that gives away locally gleaned and produced veg, along with farmers market extras and one day old leftover Acme bread. Not surprisingly, availability is unpredictable, but there’s always something. Everything is free, and everyone is invited to bring whatever they might have a little extra of (so long as it’s vegan). Official start time is 1PM, get there on the dot for the best selection, bring your own bags, jars, and other useful vessels, and prepare to meet and greet. Free fabulous produce and a great neighborhood vibe? Ooooh yeah.
PS– if the carnivore urge strikes, I swear the best taco truck in the mission (el gallo giro) is directly across on treat. You can reassure yourself that you’ll behave yourself once you cook up all those lovely veg.
