The plans for the commercial development of Sprouts Farmer’s Market on the south side of the Gill Tract are on their way. Earlier this week trees were cut just 20 feet from the banks of Village Creek— one of the last remaining open air tributaries of Marin Creek.Join us to tell Sprouts Farmers Market that there will be “no business as usual until you pull out of paving over the Gill Tract farm.” Folks will be holding signs, handing out leaflets, and letting Sprout’s customers know about the harm Sprouts is doing to our local community.

We’ll make sure folks know that Sprouts Farmers Market will be paving over the Gill Tract farm, where the local community has been proposing a community center for regenerative agriculture, education, and ecological demonstration. This is also where the Gill Tract Community Farm currently farms on an acre and a half of the total 20 acre tract that the development is taking over.

COME DEFEND THE GILL TRACT AND TELL SPROUTS TO STOP ITS DESTRUCTIVE DEVELOPMENT!!!
