https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn0fTwR5Mq-j185tyR5UvXQ/videos Inspired by Jewish wisdom and centuries-old agricultural traditions, we practice sustainable farming and share our harvest with communities that lack access to healthy food. Our goal is to become a model for community farming and creative Jewish expression, both at home in Encinitas, California, and around the world.

Happy World Soil Day! 🪱
 
Healthy soil = healthy food.
 
Our organic certification helps us protect the land we grow on - no synthetic fertilizers, no harmful chemicals, just regenerative practices that build the soil!
 
This is what Growing With Purpose looks like.

SNAP benefits change. Compassion shouldn’t.

At Coastal Roots Farm, we make sure families have fresh, organic food — no matter what.

Your donation is DOUBLED right now.

As we enter this season of reflection and gratitude, we’re giving thanks for you — our “Farm-ily" of supporters, volunteers, partners, and community members who make Coastal Roots Farm a source of nourishment and connection for so many.

Across our region, neighbors are navigating financial strain as wages fail to keep pace with the rising cost of living, and the ever-shifting status of SNAP benefits adds another layer of stress.

Fresh, nourishing produce remains essential — yet increasingly out of reach.

Because of your support, neighbors in need can count on Coastal Roots Farm. Thank you.

We’re 25% of the Way There! 🌟

Your gift to Coastal Roots Farm does more than feed people - it cultivates dignity, connection, and climate resilience in our own backyard.

Right now, 1 in 4 San Diegans faces food insecurity. Every visit to our Pay-What-You-Can Farm Stand, every school field trip, and every box of fresh produce we deliver to a Holocaust Survivor or low-income senior is possible because people like you care.

✨ Through December 31, every donation is matched up to $200,000. ✨

That means your gift goes twice as far to:

🍽️ Provide nutrient-dense produce to families facing hunger
🌱 Educate the next generation of climate-smart farmers and food justice leaders
🌿 Sustain regenerative farming practices that heal the land and community

Together, we can build a more just, nourished, and resilient future.

Think cozy greenhouse warmth, produce grown just steps away, sustainably sourced fish, chef-crafted plates, and the kind of community connection that only happens around a shared table. ✨

Join us under the twinkling lights of our propagation greenhouse for the December Farm-to-Table Dinner at Coastal Roots Farm on Sunday, December 7 at 5:00 PM.

Savor the bounty of our 18-acre regenerative farm with a seasonal, artfully prepared meal from Chef Chuck Samuelson of Heal the Earth.

With decades of experience in food systems - and as the founder of Kitchens for Good and an active member of the Food System Alliance - Chuck brings a deep passion for transforming how food is grown, shared, and accessed.

See you around the table! We have limited seats left so don't delay: https://coastalrootsfarm.org/event/farm-to-table-dinner-december-2025/ 💚

📸 Don’t forget to snap a pic with your table buddies, tag us, and share the warmth.
