With nearly 40 farmers’ markets dotting the San Diego County landscape on a weekly basis, Seeds at City ranks as the only urban market that sells organics grown on site. The project was founded by City College mathematics professor Karon Klipple, who gained approval to convert a campus lawn into a thriving vegetable garden.

The sub-acre plot now gives way to more than 50 crop varieties without the use of chemicals or petroleum-based fertilizers. The yields are sold to the public from 9 to 11:30 a.m., every Tuesday. They include frilly lettuces, Swiss chard, kale, herbs and more.
