| Location | Baltimore, Maryland, United States |

| Introduction | is a worker-run organic farm cooperative located in downtown Baltimore City. Formed in the winter of 2007 as a community garden, we have converted an under-utilized vacant lot into an urban farm. We are working against the increasing enclosure and privatization of public land, water and other common resources essential to life. Huerta del Centro operates according to principles of workers' self-management, participatory planning and democratic decision-making; we value the principles of equality, diversity and solidarity. Huerta del Centro cooperative is an alternative way of organizing and doing business that is based on non-exploitative and non-alienated labor conditions and is dedicated to building a more economically, socially and ecologically sustainable society. |
