The Garden

From the ashes of the 1992 L.A. riots, the South Central Farmers have nurtured the nations largest urban farm. They have created a miracle in one of the country’s most blighted neighborhoods. Growing their own food. Feeding their families. But now bulldozers are poised to level their 14-acre oasis. The Garden is an unflinching look at the struggle between these Latino farmers and the City of Los Angeles and a powerful developer who wants to evict them and build warehouses.
