The largest community garden in the US, spanning 14 acres in South Central Los Angeles, was established as a form of healing after the 1992 L.A. riots. Since then, the South Central Farmers have created a thriving oasis, growing their own food, feeding their families, and building a community. However, bulldozers now threaten this urban haven, as the City of Los Angeles and a powerful developer seek to evict the farmers and construct warehouses.
