The UCCE San Diego Small-Scale Urban Agriculture Project, part of UC ANR’s Integrated Pest Management in Southern California initiative, showcases best practices for growing high-value crops like blueberries, ginger, and turmeric in container and small urban settings while tackling pest, soil, and land access challenges. The project features a demonstration site at the Carlsbad Flower Fields, practical production guides, and resources that help urban growers improve plant health and evaluate feasibility and profitability of small-scale urban farming.
