Last Sunday, Albany, California residents took on issues of food, land use and environmental injustice as they began their occupation of the Gill Tract. After a ten year fight to turn the tract into an urban farm, occupiers took matters into their own hands–literally. Almost 300 people arrived with tents and equipment and got to work, clearing the land and planting vegetable plots.

Watch activists work to Take Back the Tract and get inspired to Occupy (the) Farms!
