Coastal Roots Farm and The Hive welcome people of all backgrounds for our free festive summer Shabbat series on the Farm!
Join them on Fridays June 7, July 12, August 2, and September 6 from 5-7:30pm for an inclusive, intentional, lively Shabbat with your friends and family.
The program is simple: they provide the ambiance, music, challah, candles, fun activities for the family, and Farm Tours, and the rest is up to you! Children’s activities may include arts and crafts, scavenger hunts, hoola hoops, books, blocks, and soil with worms.
It’s a true picnic-style Shabbat. Bring a picnic dinner, a beverage, picnic blankets/chairs, and welcome Shabbat with a beautiful sunset in the great outdoors.

Lee and Toni Leichtag established the Leichtag Foundation in 1991 following the sale of their business. Lee and Toni were lifelong entrepreneurs with a passion for innovation and for supporting talent. They believed that only with big risk comes big reward. Both born to families in poverty, Toni to a single mother, they strongly believed in helping those most in need and most vulnerable in our community. While they supported many causes, their strongest support was for young children and the elderly, two demographics who particularly lack voice in our society.

You would think that as the executive director of San Diego LGBT Pride, Fernando Zweifach López Jr., who uses the pronoun they, has done all the coming out they possibly can. A queer, non-binary individual who has worked for many years on civil rights issues, López also speaks openly and often about their father’s family, Mexican-American migrant workers who tilled the fields of rural California.
Stacie and Jeff Cook understand commitment. They live it.
