      Movie Info

      The South Central Farm is a 14-acre community garden that was established in the ruins of the L.A. riots in 1992. After the lush garden thrived for a decade, the urban farmers were notified that they were being evicted. In a back-room deal, the city of Los Angeles sold the space back to the developer who originally owned it. The farmers mobilize to prevent the onslaught of bulldozers in an attempt to save their beautiful land and the sustainable life it has provided.

      Audience Reviews for The Garden

      • Mar 30, 2009
        Riveting documentary about the massive legal and political battle that ensued over a 14 acre community garden tended to by the Hispanic residents in South Central Los Angeles since after the Rodney King riots. A gripping and timely portrait of racism and Capitalistic greed run amok, over a green haven steeped in tradition nestled among the buildings of LA.
