Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) presented a $75,000 donation to Brotherhood Crusade towards the creation of the new Danny J. Bakewell, Sr. Community Garden at the organization’s headquarters in South Los Angeles.
On Nov. 29, Black American founder Arielle Ilunga officially opened the new Carla’s Fresh Market in Los Angeles’ Highland Park. The first of its kind neighborhood grocery store, it redefines the neighborhood grocery store, providing access to high-quality, fresh produce and thoughtfully made food products prepared by BIPOC growers and small businesses to areas often overlooked and underserved.
Sole Folks, a retail-based co-op in Leimert Park, has partnered with Black-owned farms to bring fresh produce to the community.
