Being a menace to South Central while bulldozing the urban garden

Did you know there was an urban garden in South Central LA?

Well that is what it looked like a few short months ago.

Here is what it looks like now

This farm has been around since 1992 and due to some legal mishandlings, the farm has been in danger for a few years now. But this is the first time that there has been this much destruction. You can find the full story of the farm here.

I urge you to check out this story… it’s quite amazing. This is the largest urban farm in the United States and it’s future is in dire straits. I would be interested to hear from anyone who’s been out to the farm recently or in the past. Please share your experience.
