 an annual, all volunteer organized, celebration of Urban Agriculture, Food 
 Justice, Fermented Foods and Community to benefit City Slicker Farms in 
 West Oakland. The event highlights the work of City Slicker Farms' 
 “Backyard Garden Program”, and also features local food activists, a 
 fermented food and drink potluck, a fermentation workshop, live music, a 
 City Slicker Farms plant sale and a presentation on international urban 
 agriculture and food politics. Local fermentors that bring homemade 
 fermented foods or drinks are entered in a drawing to win lots of local 
 goodies.  If you would like to bring a dish to the event, or would like to 
 host a fermentation themed event to benefit City Slicker Farms or any like 
 minded cause please email maxc@riseup.net. \n\n*More info on the great work 
 done by City Slicker Farms:\n\nCity Slicker Farms creates urban market 
 farms that provide affordable, fresh, organic produce to West Oakland 
 residents, serve as a community spaces for children and adults who want to 
 learn about farming, and assist local residents with setting up back yard 
 food gardens. Located in the Prescott neighborhood of West Oakland, the 
 project seeks to improve nutrition for residents, increase local food 
 security and self-reliance, and increase awareness about the connection 
 between food, health, and the urban environment. \n\nA truly grass-roots 
 project, City Slicker Farms relies for labor and direction on volunteers 
 who reside in the community we serve. Currently we have over 10,000 square 
 feet of garden space in the form of vacant urban lots under cultivation. A 
 seasonal variety of culturally appropriate fruits and vegetables are 
 distributed to the community for donation twice a week at a vegetable stand 
 in front of one of the farms. Other projects include a kitchen scrap 
 pickup/compost program, free classes and workshops, vegetable starts and 
 seeds for back yard gardeners, and volunteer and work-trade 
 opportunities.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/03/13/18576779.php
