Master Plan

The Future of Loma Vista Farm

A Multi-Year Plan for development, modernization, and improvement!

The Master Plan is a comprehensive plan to modernize the infrastructure of Loma Vista Farm.   The Farm was built in 1974 with limited funding by the Vallejo City Unified School District. The original structures served the mission of the Farm well through the years with limited improvements and add-ons. Up to now, the Farm’s improvements were limited to the minimum of what was needed to ensure the lowest cost so that budgets could be stretched as far as possible.

The Master Plan project has been in the planning stages for over two years. The Friends of Loma Vista Farm Board has been defining and reviewing the Farm’s needs and goals, the current status of education, current trends for animal care in California, and current needs of the community and VCUSD. The Board’s conclusion is that a comprehensive plan to modernize, update, and upgrade the Farm itself is needed.   The goal of the Master Plan is to ensure that the Farm’s infrastructure can carry it into the future for at least the next 50 years.   This is a tricky and challenging goal when education, technology, and current trends in food choices are changing constantly.

We’re having a fundraising drive to meet our master plan goals! Click on our fundraising page for more information.

    Dear Loma Vista Farms,
    I just called, but I would like to plan a fieldtrip for 3 classes from Cooper Elementary in Vallejo. It would be for about 80 students and approximately 20 adults. I was hoping for a Tuesday or Thursday or if not a Friday. May 2nd is our preferred date, please!

    Hi There! My name is Elise Lund and I am a project manager at Chandon. One of our initiatives this year is to build an on-site community garden to help serve the community, while educating about sustainability. We are still in the early planning stages of building our garden so are trying to learn as much as possible from existing gardens. We have a volunteer team of 6 people working on the project with a variety of expertise. Would we be able to set up a tour of the gardens as well as a quick session for us to learn more about how the garden works? Appreciate the help in advance!
