Our Mission
La Finca Del Sur/South Bronx farmers are currently transforming three acres of land (La Finca Del Sur/South Bronx Farm) into an innovative urban farm, farmers market, health & wellness hub, children’s science program and community-gathering/performance space. La Finca Del Sur/ South Bronx farmers are committed to building healthy communities and food sustainability by providing local, affordable farm-fresh food to low income communities.

Our Statement
La Finca Del Sur/South Bronx Farmers - A community-supported urban farmer cooperative operated by women of color (“una finca urbana encabezada por mujeres de razas diversas”) and supporters.

Rooted in respect for our precious Earth, our communities and ourselves, we are working together cooperatively to provide the South Bronx community with access to local, affordable farm-fresh organic food; encourage economic empowerment; promote health awareness; teach environmental education and to stand for social equity. We accept everyone in solidarity w/ our vision regardless of race, gender, age, and ability. We encourage and celebrate the South Bronx's multicultural folklore, arts and traditions

La Finca Del Sur translates literally as "Farm of The South". We chose this name as a tribute to the southern regions of the world, fertile lands of productivity and endurance, and to the people of the South Bronx , many who migrated from the southern states to find their own place to grow. It is in Spanish to additionally honor the many Latino groups who have helped to shape the culture of this area.

La Finca Del Sur se traduce literalmente como "Farm of The South". Escogimos este nombre como tributo a las regiones surenas del mundo, tierras fertiles que perduran, y a la gente del Sur del Bronx, muchos entre ellos migrantes del los estados del sur, quienes vinieron en busca de un lugar para desarrollar. El nombre es en espanol para honrar tambien a los tantos grupos Latinos que han ayudado a formar la cultura de esta area.
