It’s such an easy thing to go to the local farmer’s market or grocery store to purchase a beautiful boutique of flowers. And we probably don’t think too much about the work that went into growing them. At The Urban Edge Farm, you not only get to see flowers as they move along their growth journey, but you can pick your own colorful hues, providing a greater sense of ownership and appreciation for the beauty they bring to your life.

Located in the town of Brentwood, approximately 40 minutes from Downtown Oakland in the heart of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, The Urban Edge Farm is a family affair.
