Latinx Family Farmers are About to Lose Their Farms!

The Sustainable Systems Research Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit green think tank and eco-project incubator in the Monterey Bay Area and Central Coast of California. SSRF seeks to create a sustainable Central California Coast through local, participatory community development of sustainable energy generation, regenerative and organic small farming, urban agriculture, backyard housing and real compostable food and packaging systems. Our philosophy is that the best form of activism is that which benefits the community, is reproducible, scalable and easily adopted and adapted to other places. SSRF works with our communities to help the greater society become more sustainable and just. We develop active collaborations with organizations, public agencies, funders, donors and small private companies that share our interests and goals. Our projects and programs go beyond vision to actual deployment--to function as models that can be replicated in other cities in California, the United States and the World.
