Every bite starts with a pair of hands.

Harvest season powerfully reminds us of the delicate infrastructure and human dedication behind our regional food system. In West Marin, farmers like Teo and Máxima Zarate have spent decades building deep expertise working the land at Red Hill Ranch—adapting through droughts, storms, and short-term land leases to keep fresh food growing.

As we enjoy this season's bounty, let's recognize and invest in the next generation of agricultural stewards who keep our communities nourished and resilient.

Less talk, more grit.
Happy National Farmers Day to the local ranchers and growers who turn dedication into the food on our tables and are stewards of our open spaces. Marin’s agriculture thrives because of you. 🙌

What does 12+ hours a day on a local egg farm look like?

Our intern Diego captured the hard work, dedication, and care that go into feeding our community every day. From the 600 pounds of feed fed each day to cartons labeled "Protected by MALT," this short film highlights why supporting local, resilient agriculture matters.

When fire broke out in Chileno Valley, it was a fast reminder of how quickly things can change on a beautiful fall day. But thanks to the incredible emergency crews who responded without hesitation, they stopped the fire's forward progress, and ranches like Mike and Sally Gales Chileno Valley Ranch remain safe. We're grateful to the firefighters, air crews, and first responders who put everything on the line to protect these working lands and open spaces. 🍎
