Rooted in Historic South Atlanta

A working farm
on the south side. Food, work, and joy — grown, taught, and circulated, neighbor by neighbor.

Five acres behind Price Middle School in Historic South Atlanta. We grow food for our neighborhoods, train the next generation of growers and leaders, and are building a neighborhood institution meant to outlast any one season — or any one of us.

Three ways to eat what we grow.

For schools & cafeterias

Farm to cafeteria

SAF produce lands in the kitchens at Price, Carver, and the Slater Co-op — grown a hundred yards from the trays it ends up on.

For restaurants & shops

Wholesale, per-pound

Order from our Local Line catalog by the pound. Little Bear, Talat Market, and Adam J's Grilled Cheese already cook with SAF produce.

For neighbors

Neighbor days — starting now

This Saturday, July 25: our youth interns are selling SAF produce at Cultivating Innovation's Youth Business Market — Four Corners Park, 9am–1pm. Come through. Next up: second-Saturday farm stand days, with produce sold close to home — within about four miles of the farm — so the food and its value stay in the neighborhood.

What This Farm Is

A farm. A hub. A neighbor.

Three years in. Five acres in Historic South Atlanta. Rooted in the neighborhoods that built this city — and built this country's idea of what Atlanta is.

WHERE WE COME FROM

Atlanta agriculture is a Black tradition.

From Sweet Auburn to the AUC, from family gardens to HBCU ag programs, growing food in South Atlanta has always been a way of holding ground. We're carrying that tradition forward — not inventing it.

WHAT WE'VE DONE

Three years. Real numbers. Real wins.

5,500+ lbs grown. 263 young people reached, 43 in paid roles. $22K+ in food reinvested locally. Start:ME Southside 2026 — Pitch Perfect and Community Impact Award.

WHAT WE'RE DOING

Independent. Producing. Hosting.

South Atlanta Farms LLC formed April 2026. Restaurant accounts with Grant Park Coffeehouse, Little Bear, Talat Market, and Adam J's Grilled Cheese. Neighbor sales days on the way. Young people learning and working in the beds — and the farm's first vineyard taking root.

WHERE WE'RE GOING

A self-sustaining institution.

Scaling to 1.5 acres in production by 2028, with food sales carrying the majority of operations. A nonprofit arm standing up in 2026 to grow the community programming. Working toward permanent public farmland — a neighborhood asset that lasts.

Why This Work

These neighborhoods built Atlanta. The farm grows with them.

Growing food in the South is a deep tradition — Black agricultural heritage, family gardens, land skills passed hand to hand across the many communities that call the south side home. We're carrying that tradition forward, together.

Fresh food, real skills, and ownership close to home — that's what the farm grows.
