Planting Justice empowers individuals impacted by mass incarceration and social inequities by equipping them with the skills and resources to build food sovereignty, economic justice, and community healing. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, the organization constructs edible permaculture gardens and collaborates with high schools to create food justice curricula. Their holistic re-entry program trains incarcerated individuals in permaculture gardening and offers living-wage jobs upon parole, boasting a zero percent recidivism rate. The organization operates a four-acre farm in El Sobrante and a two-acre USDA certified organic nursery in Oakland, home to over 1,300 varieties of fruit trees and perennial plants. Planting Justice also offers permaculture landscaping services and works with the Sogorea Te’ Land Trust to restore native stewardship on Ohlone land. As a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Planting Justice is part of transformative community efforts like the East Oakland Neighborhood Initiative.
