Boggs Tract Community Farm

Boggs Tract is a community farm that is helping make America great again by bringing a diverse group of people together to be sustainable, healthy, and inclusive. Tracts can be rented for a small monthly fee by anyone who is interested. Ellen Powell is the volunteer coordinator. If you rent a plot you will have to volunteer for four hours a month. Volunteering is a wonderful way to learn about gardening and healthy eating. The monthly fee includes compost and water for your plot. There is also a chicken farm here as well. There is ample parking out front. BUFA (Black Urban Farmer's Association) helps to organize the community farm. This is led by the talented and friendly Ines Aldridge and her husband Almas (aka Al). You can find them riding on tractors or planting seeds. They are always ready to offer advice. There are classes every month on the third Sunday of the month at 11:30am. These are open to the public and are free. The list of the classes are listed online. They are run by Shane of Fiery Ginger Farm up in Sacramento.Some of the things we have grown in our little plot include okra, watermelons, melons, tomatoes, Armenian cucumbers, grapes, and eggplants.There is ample parking in front. Getting here is a bit tricky due to road construction. Stockton is ripe for resurgence and rejuvenation. Boggs tract farm is leading the way!

Community farm where you can rent a plot and grow your favorite fruits or veggies. I buy my cage free eggs, honey, fruit/veggies from here on occasion. Friendly people who give classes on site from anything from tree planting, basic gardening, to chicken care. I took in some instruction on chicken care today from Patricia Miller. It was very informative. Thanks Patricia!! I even got a tour of the henhouse full of Rhode Island Reds! Farm to fork!!! This place is a true Stockton gem!!
