    A Nonprofit Community Farm in Encinitas, California

Coastal Roots Farm cultivates healthy, connected communities by integrating sustainable agriculture, food justice, and ancient Jewish wisdom.

Our Veggies Not Only Look Good, They DO GOOD! 🍅 Our Veggies Not Only Look Good, They DO GOOD! 🍅🌿 

At Coastal Roots Farm, we’re more than just a Farm. We donate a majority of our regeneratively and organically grown fresh produce to those in need because we believe everyone deserves access to healthy, organic food, no matter their background.

Last year, we proudly provided over 45,000 people with fresh produce through our Pay-What-You-Can Farm Stand and free food deliveries. Every vegetable grown here is a step towards food justice. 🌱✨

Visit our Pay-What-You-Can Farm Stand and get a $30 credit for fresh fruits and veggies! Together, we’re nourishing both body and soul, because access to healthy food should be a right, not a privilege.

🗓 Visit us on Sundays from 10 AM - 3 PM and Thursdays from 12 PM - 3 PM!

What would a farm be without it's Farmers? Their What would a farm be without it's Farmers? 

Their work goes far beyond just growing food.

Through their expertise in regenerative organic farming, they’re not only producing the freshest, most nutrient-dense food for our community, but they’re also healing the earth, one seed at a time. 

✨Here’s how they do it! ✨

🌱 Improving Soil Health: By using crop rotations, cover crops, and composting, they enrich the soil with organic matter, increase its ability to retain water, and eliminate the need for synthetic fertilizers.

🪱 Promoting Biodiversity: Our farmers plant a variety of crops and create habitats for pollinators and wildlife, fostering a more balanced and resilient ecosystem.
No Till: By avoiding tilling, they protect the soil structure and prevent erosion, allowing beneficial organisms like earthworms and microbes to thrive and build a healthier soil. As Farmer Zach famously said - "We feed the soil, not the crop!"

🌎 Carbon Sequestration: Regenerative practices help capture carbon in the soil, reducing the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and helping combat climate change. How? By promoting healthy soil conditions our farmers set up the conditions for plants to pull more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis and store it in the soil as organic matter. 

💧Water Conservation: Through mulching and efficient drip irrigation, they minimize water usage while ensuring crops receive the moisture they need to thrive.

By restoring the health of the land, our farmers are not only growing nutrient-dense food - they’re working to reverse environmental damage and protect the planet for future generations. 🌱💚

As winter settles in, Coastal Roots Farm enters a As winter settles in, Coastal Roots Farm enters a quieter, more reflective time. 

In Judaism, the changing of seasons holds deep meaning. Winter is a time for rest and renewal, a moment to reflect on the cycles of life, lessons we've learned from our history, growth, and the beauty of nature’s rhythms. 🌱❄️

Some plants like radishes, kale, and other cool-season crops are still going strong! The farm is covered in cover crops, giving the soil a boost as we get eagerly get ready for the summer growing season - we can't wait!
