Across the state, urban communities are organizing to create direct links between campesin@ communities for cheaper organic groceries, guaranteed income to small farmers, and movement infrastructure for agrarian reform in California.
A core component of our Territorial Markets initiative organizes neighborhoods to pool funds together & buy in-bulk — providing guaranteed income to small farmers along with cheaper groceries per-individual unit to communities.
These collective purchasing vehicles often also cover the costs of low-income families & workers who cannot provide a due through collective sliding scale agreements. In an effort to make these initiatives more resilient, we are launching a campaign to raise funds to boost the limited matching funds we currently commit to the many direct-purchases we help coordinate across the state.
At the crux of these efforts remains the effort to articulate a rural-urban front against exploitative pricing on food, rent for agricultural land & apartments, and the actors who continue to make our lives locally & globally unbearable under current conditions. All dollars go directly towards these orders.
Every dollar boosts our matching pool — directly subsidizing bulk purchases of organic produce for organized working-class communities at below-market rates.
Matching funds cover costs for low-income families and workers who cannot pay full dues, ensuring no one is excluded from buyers' clubs based on ability to pay.
Stable bulk commitments give small campesin@ producers reliable income outside corporate supply chains — letting them invest in their land and practices.
These purchasing relationships build the organized urban-rural networks that underpin our broader agrarian reform strategy across California.
Each campaign is tied to a specific organizing effort. Donations go directly to the community partners coordinating produce delivery in that region.
Free produce program for SEIU Local 2007 workers — cleaning, dining, and service staff on Stanford's campus. In collaboration with Stanford Students for Worker's Rights & the Coalición de Pequeños Agricultores en California. All produce provided & delivered by the Coalición, with donations covering produce & delivery costs.
Across Oakland Neighborhood assemblies & SF mutual aid formations, emergent buyers' clubs are forming to fortify direct-farmer purchasing networks with former farmworkers in transition to small farmers — la Coalición de Pequeños Agricultores en California. All produce provided & delivered by the Coalición, with donations covering unaccounted costs.
Across the LA Tenant's Union network, emergent collective purchasing vehicles are forming to provide fresh, organic produce to working families at bulk-price rates, connected directly with small farmers. In collaboration with LATU, Polo's Pantry, and Saticoy Food Hub.
All produce is provided & delivered by Saticoy Food Hub's small farmer network. Polo's Pantry provides essential operational infrastructure — delivery coordination, cooler space, and logistical capacity — that makes the buyers' clubs viable across the city. Donations to Polo's Pantry cover produce, delivery, and cooler space, not produce alone.
Polo's Pantry is tax-deductible via Givebutter and covers the full operational cost: produce, delivery, and cooler space rental.
Sprouted from Latino Muslim organizers, Dawah Delivery serves mobile home communities across SELA facing eviction displacement and high costs of living for groceries and rent. This is a direct community fund — donations go straight to Dawah Delivery's capacity to purchase in bulk from Saticoy Food Hub and deliver to families who cannot access conventional food networks.
This is a distinct and independent fundraising effort from the broader LATU matching funds. Pluri & Polo's will also provide matching funds where budgets allow, but Dawah Delivery needs a dedicated base of support to grow.
Zeffy donations are tax-deductible. Dawah Delivery is building bulk purchasing capacity to serve SELA mobile home residents — your donation directly expands how many families they can reach.
