Who We Are
Huarache Farms is a cooperative of local urban farmers in Sierra Madre. Our mission is to support local and sustainable urban agriculture and to serve as a community development resource.
We’re a diverse group of city dwellers, bringing fresh produce to farmer’s markets and our surrounding communities from our own backyards.
Our mission is to create a culture around small-scale gardening and cooking that transforms the political and physical landscape of Los Angeles into one of beauty and resiliency.
“We focus on growing food for people directly”
— michael wood, FOUNDER
Our Veganic Methods
At Huarache Farms, we utilize hydroponics, water gardens, wicking soil beds, sprouting systems, and vertical tower gardens to grow food on a backyard scale.
Our farms emphasize a thoughtful approach to growing fruits and vegetables that focus on growing speciality crops without a need for animals or their manure. We call our methods “veganic” and see it as more sustainable and healthier approach to the future of food.
