This was a very hard topic to talk about with my community engagement because they do so much without asking for funding from outside organizations. There is no application that I know of that helps them maintain what they are. Like I mentioned in a previous blog entry, the help of POST allows them to conserve their land and have some protection. Potrero Nuevo farm is a farm that is based on the helping of others. Potrero Nuevo helps places such as Table of Plenty. I am not sure if Table of Plenty provides them with any type of funding which was not clear or either websites. Since there is not as much outside funding they are not as equipped to hire other farmers to help them with the farm which is why they revolve to heavily on volunteers to help them with farming duties.
