- $67,110 spent. Our program for Sanctuary Gardens has been successful in several ways, most importantly providing foods that are familiar to the community we serve. We are creating a space where our community feels safe and welcome to come and enjoy time with their families working the earth. This provides a safe area free from discrimination for our Latinx and Indigenous migrant community. We feed out of our 2 gardens around 100 people and use the space for holding events and practicing cultural revitalization, food sovereignty, passing intergenerational knowledge pertaining to food cultivation. There have been acts of vandalism and hate crimes at the garden and raised some funds for garden security in 2022, with the support of the City of Arcata and pour community we have not had any hate crimes or vandalism for 1 year. We have worked to expand the project to include a small farm to provide fresh food and teach young people how to start businesses. The farm has been a great volunteer and cultural enterprise poroviding hundreds of families with fresh produce and activities passing generational traditions to the next generation. Our CSA worked and where our revenue came from however it doesn't offset the cost of running the farm we may need to step back in the future as it is a great expense dependent on outside funding.
