Excerpt:
Gardeners like Khadija Musame, an immigrant from Kenya, have continued growing on their plots for generations. Khadija grows collard greens, potatoes and cilantro, all which she uses to make recipes from her home. She also sells some of her produce at the City Heights Farmers Market.
New Roots gardeners also have the option to sell their produce at the City Heights Farmers Market, but many choose to sell to local super markets, such as Vien Dong Supermarket in El Cajon.
Shopping at these city markets is a way to support local gardeners in San Diego, as well as learning more about the communities that surround SDSU.
Each plot in New Roots Garden tells a story full of family, tradition and adaptation in a new country. This hidden sanctuary shows that even in the middle of an urban city landscape, communities, sustainability and nature can grow and thrive.
