Tassafaronga Youth Urban Farm is at the corner of 83rd Avenue and E Street in Oakland. Our office is at 1001 83rd Av., across the street from the farm.

Acta Non Verba: Youth Urban Farm Project (ANV) elevates life in the inner city by challenging oppressive dynamics and environments through urban farming. ANV’s quarter acre farm located in the City of Oakland’s Tassafaronga Park is planned, planted, harvested and sold by youth in grades K-8. One hundred percent of the proceeds are placed into individual savings accounts for those who participate.

Camp ANV Week 1! You are Loved!!💛💚We’ve had so much fun going on our swim day, exploring Tilden Little Farm, learning about archery, photography, theater, and so much more!! We’re so grateful that we get to be a safe space for kids to have fun and enjoy their summer. Everything from the food that’s prepared, to the activities the campers are involved in, has been crafted with so much love and care. Thank you to everyone who’s involved in Camp ANV, and we can’t wait to share what we have in store for the upcoming weeks! Until then, enjoy the laughs and giggles of our campers during Week 1! -With love and gratitude, Team ANV ✊🏿💚

As of April 1st: ANV is OFF Facebook and Twitter (X)
At Acta Non Verba, we’re choosing integrity over influence.

📣 We are divesting from Facebook and Twitter (X) because these platforms have consistently undermined truth, amplified ignorance, and profited from disinformation and hate.

We believe in:

🌍 Truth

✊🏾 Justice

🤝🏽 Integrity

We are:

Anti-Empire

Anti-Ignorance

Anti-Racist

In short: Anti-Fascist.

Our voice and our work will not be used to boost platforms that fail our communities. We're building something different—something rooted in liberation, land, and love.

Join Us. Feel the land. Stand with us.
