- Hosted 30+ schools and non-profits to learn about farming and consulted on 20+ local gardens.
In 2016, ANV aims to further prove our commitment to our communities by providing all ages with opportunities to learn, grow, and be present as well as advocating for a more just and equitable food system, education system, and by instilling hope and excitement in the lives of our youth. We want to expand our camps to ensure more than 300 youth have access to enriching, healthy, safe, educational, and FUN activities during school breaks. But we can’t do all of this without YOUR SUPPORT!

Together, we can grow a brighter future for youth and their families in East Oakland one tomato, book, and jumping jack at a time!
