The Florence Fang Community Farm is seeking an Executive Director to steward our programming, community engagement, and financial stability to the next level.
ABOUT US
Florence Fang Community Farm (FFCF) is an organic farm and ecosystem located in the heart of Bayview Hunters Point in southeast San Francisco, the most diverse and underserved area of the city.
Launched in 2014, FFCF has become San Francisco's largest, second-most productive, most diverse urban community farm, and the city's first farm operation certified by the USDA.

We aim to improve food security, increase healthy living habits, practice natural farming techniques, improve the environment, support neighborhood economic opportunity, and increase social connectedness within and between communities of color.
Our farm also supports our community's food sovereignty by providing a food source that is consistent with cultural identities and involving community networks that promote self-reliance and mutual aid.
