> ABOUT MUIR RANCH
> Muir Ranch, located on the campus of John Muir High School in Pasadena, is a 2 acre urban farm. Founded in 2011, the Ranch is administered through the Pasadena Educational Foundation(PEF). Through the sale of cut flowers at farmer?s markets and private functions, and produce box subscriptions (CSA), Muir Ranch is able to provide paid internships to high school students year-round. Muir Ranch is a working farm where students, teachers, interns and volunteers prepare the soil, install
irrigation systems, select and plant crops, and nurture and harvest the vegetables that find their way into school cafeteria lunches and community members? plates as CSA shares. Students acquire a variety of skills within the fields of environmental science, nutrition, engineering, business management and marketing, among others.
>
> Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a model of food production and distribution that provides a direct link between local farmers and consumers. Every week, Muir Ranch CSA subscribers get a box of about 7-10 different types of fruits and vegetables. Customers pick their shares up at central distribution sites throughout Pasadena. Muir Ranch CSA partners with several local farms for seasonal produce to supplement Muir Ranch?s harvest, providing tax-deductible weekly boxes to over 100 subscribers.
