Few details are available, but were told it happened on alhambra avenue yesterday morning. Police say a Family Member brought the boy to the hospital and the toddler had at least one gunshot wound. They say the shooting happened at a home, but the circumstances are not clear. No arrests have been made. Six year old Jeremy Stoner was assaulted and strangled and a suspect was arrested but later cleared. And jeremys murder went unsolved until this week. Abc seven News Reporter Tara Campbell shows us how police finally cracked the cold case footage from more than three decades ago. Abc seven news there for the funeral of six year old Jeremy Stoner abducted near his familys vallejo home in 1987. His body found days later on Sherman Island in sacramento county. We are in the process as we have been for the last several days, of going throughout that area. And looking for suspicious people. Anything that may be suspicious that has come through that area that year, police did arrest and charge a man with murder and kidnaping, but the case was dismissed and the investigation then went cold for decades. That is, until this week. Solano County District attorney Krishna Abrams announcing friday a new suspect in custody identified using dna technology. In a statement, she said, i am so thankful to have such dedicated cold case investigators that no matter how much time goes by, they remain steadfast in their commitment to solving these horrific cases. Jim hammer is a former San Francisco assistant district attorney. The second level is think about the guy who was wrongly accused of this. I mean, a man sued, falsely accused of rape and murder of a young boy. I cant imagine a worse false accusation. Now, this week, investigators arresting fred kane, the third, at his home in central point, oregon. Hell be transferred to Solano County to face a murder charge. Hes also accused of kidnaping and. But if dna is collected properly and everyone follows the procedure, theres in my mind, no better evidence in the world because it can prove conclusively who committed this crime and perhaps soon some long awaited closure for this community. Tara campbell, abc seven news. Governor newsom is urging the Supreme Court to reconsider a ruling that blocks cities from clearing homeless encampments. He filed a brief yesterday warning that the high court that cities are paralyzed by the decision. Newsoms filing comes as San Francisco is fighting an injunction preventing it from clearing encampments. District attorneys in sacramento and san diego have filed a similar briefs. San francisco is considering bringing back patrol specials, a private Security Service from the gold rush era amid a police shortage. One Police Commissioner believes it is a good idea. Abc seven News Reporter lou pena looks at what it would take to revive the patrol Specials Program for crime in San Francisco is trending up. According to the latest city police data robberies over the last 12 months are up 6 compared to the annual average over the last four years. Vehicle thefts are also up 19 compared to the yearly average. City officials are now getting creative, looking at the past to stop future crime, theyre considering something called patrol specials. A patrol special is a modified private security. So this also will free up our Police Officers to actually fight crime. San francisco commissioner Deborah Walker presented this proposal to the Police Commission this week, hoping to officially bring back a squad of this type to the city. Is an existing program that began back in the Gold Rush Days when we didnt have police. But its always operated sort of side at the same time as our Police Department. Currently, theres only one patrol special still active in San Francisco. He urged sfpds chief and other commissioners to revive this program. When i became patrol special in 1977, it was 450 patrol specials that was assistance and beat owners. Sfpd is about 600 officers short patrol specials would be assigned to specific blocks where businesses request their services in the past, they have been armed and their uniform is very similar to that of an officer. We have our ambassador programs. We are looking at using police reserves and paying them. There are about 260 businesses in fishermans wharf. The Community Benefit district says safety is a major concern for patrol Specialist Program is Crime Prevention through presence. And that is what were asking for. Just having them around will give tourists. Theyll make them feel safer as the Police Commission irons out the details. Supervisor peskin is also worried about why they disappeared. The Police Officers union was never big. Fans of the patrol special. They saw them as competition. Were no longer in those days. Were short several hundred Police Officers, so hopefully those issues will go away. Now, we also contacted the San Francisco police union for comment and did not hear back. Theres also an issue of fairness because some neighborhoods will be able to afford patrol specials and some want. For now, the Police Commission is working with sfpd to define what the training and strategy will be moving forward. In the newsroom, lou pena, abc seven news. Alice, thank you so much. Shutdown that will last all weekend. The northbound of highway 87 in san jose closed last night between julian street and highway 85. Crews are working on a major lane resurfacing project.

Marshalls pride event today is happening at the Waterfront Park from 11 a. M. To 2 p. M. Abc7 News Reporter lena howland took a closer look at what this event means to the community. 880. For the first time in martinez history, the city is holding its first pride celebration on saturday. I went to school in martinez and i remember there was Nothing Available for pride. Christian aguirre is executive director of the Rainbow Community center, the lgbtq nonprofit serves people of all ages in 19 cities across contra costa county. This year, its the main Event Sponsor for martinez pride. We really want to elevate that message to create awareness , and also to allow people to feel welcome everywhere they go in our county. And for the main organizer, sarah tucker, its personal. It just it helps, right . As a parent and as a queer person myself, it helps to know that our community is behind us. Martinez is now one of several smaller communities that have adopted their own pride. Instead of relying on events in larger cities. Tucker says with a rise in anti lgbtq legislation across the country this year, pride has never been more important. There are lgbtq folks everywhere and we like to see it in our communities. We want to know that our local businesses support us and our City Council Supports us. And so its important to have representation. Its important for our kids to have representation in. Martinez mayor brian zorn says the event is also proudly backed by the city, with a 2,500 cultural grant in addition, it really shows our Lgbtq Community lives in martinez that theyre seen and that theyre loved by their martinez neighbors. But with future Grant Funding uncertain, the Rainbow Community center is still seeking more sources of funding to make sure pride can continue next year. So were trying to bring more Community Members to step in and also build a donor base for us to sustain throughout many years. And if they can contribute to this group, then that will ensure that were able to have this event annually. In martinez, lena howland, abc seven news. In San Francisco this weekend you can expect to see a lot of leather in the citys soma neighborhood. The 40th annual folsom street fair is tomorrow.

Will only be available on select days, mostly fridays and saturdays. That looks so cool. I really want to go to that. Lisa, i know we were talking about that earlier. Just looks like such a cool event. And arent you excited about fall and halloween here . Yeah, the temperatures certainly have been cool and were going to get in a little early season rain. So that will also make it feel more like fall around here. We havent had much heat. There isnt much on the horizon at all. But as we get rid of the haze and fog later on today, we have a cold front that is going to bring some pretty good rain. 2 to 4in in the pacific northwest, maybe three quarters of an inch in extreme Northern California. Putting out the fires there. So thats some really good news. This is Tropical Storm ophelia, which made landfall as a hurricane 530 this morning eastern time. It is a weekend washout for the carolinas, virginia, pennsylvania to new york, into boston on as yet another tropical system lashes the eastern seaboard. As we look at home, we are already looking at some sun, but also the haze. Heres our smoke loop throughout the day today and tomorrow. We are all under the blue. Today which indicates hazy conditions. But by later on today, some big improvements in that last through our sunday will increase the high clouds, though, for a partly cloudy sky into sunday. This morning kind of dramatic out there from our roof. Camera 55 in the city. It is 57 Mountain View. Good morning. Half moon bay, 60 in oakland.

It is 48 in nevada with mid 50s in concord. We have had some sun are inland valleys and you can notice how gray it is out here from our roof camera. So spare the air again today. Last one, hazy skies and looking at much better air quality late today into sunday and our early season rainfall coming in monday afternoon. So the clouds clear back for sunny skies. Some haze as well. And then well look at your sunday afternoon bringing the increasing high clouds. We stay dry. And then late sunday, the system is far to the north. So well pick this up midday sunday and it is a really strong system that is going to bring a lot of rain up to the north. Its falling apart as it moves into the bay area. And then by late monday into early tuesday, its out of here. Were on the back side of it. As for temperatures, theyre going to stay cool and rainfall amounts just a couple of hundredths from novato to San Francisco, even as far south as santa cruz. But up to the north , we could see maybe 8 100 in santa rosa highs today. Same deal with only upper 60s in oakland to mid 70s in the south bay. Upper 70s in livermore hazy conditions spare the air good air quality for your sunday. The accuweather seven day forecast tracking the rain showers for monday ending late monday into early tuesday. And i was just looking at some newer forecast models and im not believing those mid 80s inland so i think im going to bring the temperatures down wednesday and thursday.

Yeah, and i know a lot of people are happy about the rain because we usually dont get it this early, right . Yeah, we dont get anything at all. So. Yeah, but you know what .

The seminoles havent won in death valley since 2013. This is the game that when the schedule came out, i circled it on the map. You knew it was going to have huge implications and maybe even College Football playoff implications. Florida state last week. Wow. On the road against Boston College wasnt their best effort, but they walked away with the w. And dont forget, clemson started the season with a loss against duke. It wasnt like their offense was bad. They just shot themselves in the foot in the red zone. Theres going to be a different monster that Florida State is going to see when they go to death valley. It might be a de facto Elimination Game for clemson as it pertains to the playoff, 330 eastern, colorado still unbeaten. They go to oregon. Stepping up in class. You know what, rhys . Youre right. They are stepping up in class. Last week they beat colorado state. Huge win at home. But now going up against oregon. Oregon is the number two offense in the nation, averaging 58 points per contest. And they are without their two way superstar, travis hunter. Okay. And then nightcap. 730 eastern time, texas and baylor. Baylor is at one and two. Only win coming against long island university. Didnt even know they had a football team. So baylor needs to get on track. It could be a dangerous place. And waco at nighttime, texas better be careful. Texas was so lethargic. To put it kindly against wyoming last week. Tied going into the Fourth Quarter but pulled away. You can see the longhorns, a championship contender in prime time. And just ahead, the Global Movement to end extreme poverty. Well hear from the cofounder of Global Citizen about this years specific goal. And this weekends star studded concert but his vision dimmed with age. He had amd. I didnt know it then, but it can progress to ga, an advanced form of the disease. His struggle with vision loss from amd made me want to help you see warning signs of ga. Like Straight Lines that seem wavy, blurry, or missing visual spots that make it hard to see faces like this one, or trouble with low light that makes driving at night a real challenge. If youve been diagnosed with amd and notice vision changes, dont wait. Ga is irreversible. Its important to catch it early. Talk to your eye doctor about ga and learn more at gawontwait. Com to stay locked in, i need to keep up my strength, and my energy. Clif bar® is the ultimate energy bar®. Purposefully crafted with a blend of protein, fat and carbs. Because the more good you put in, the more great you get out. Shows dozens of Musical Artists and celebrities will be donating their time and talent to help end extreme poverty, promote gender equality and combat climate change. Abc seven news anchor reggie aqui spoke with the ceo of Global Citizen, hugh evans, about this weekends charity show and how you can get involved. Hugh i cant believe its been a year since ive talked to you. That went fast. I know last year we were talking all about mariah carey. This year you have a whole bunch of other stars who are performing at Global Citizen. Well, we do. We do have a big california star with the Red Hot Chili Peppers headlining. So were very excited. Oh, thats really good. Y have megan the stallion. You have ms. Lauryn hill. Yes ms. Lauryn is going to be there. And it is the 25th anniversary of the miseducation on tour. So this is an extraordinary moment. And we also have john cook of f well as another huge kpop act. Stray kids will all be performing. So weve got really an extraordinary mix of genres coming together for this urgent moment. Yes. Okay so lets talk about that urgent moment. You get these huge stars in order to bring attention to extreme poverty around the world. Yeah. So the whole premise of Global Citizen is that you cant buy a ticket to the Global Citizen festival. You have to earn your way in through taking action so everyone who downloads the Global Citizen app, they start taking action in support of issues that they care about. And all of those actions earn them points and they use those points to come to the Global Citizen festival for free. So right now we have 12 million Global Citizens around the world and we just broke the record this month with the most number of actions for a Global Citizen festival campaign. 3 million actions taken in just a few months time because so many people around the world united together to call on World Leaders, firstly to tackle the issue of the hunger crisis and secondly, the issue of gender equity. We know, firstly on the hunger crisis that 1 in 5 people across Subsaharan Africa are facing acute malnutrition, which is just unbelievable. And right now we need to support the International Fund for Agriculture Development in their replenishment efforts to support small hold farmers right now to have the seeds and fertilizers they need to grow crops and flourish. The second thing we need to know is we need to stand up for gender equity because we cant possibly fully eradicate extreme poverty without equity for girls and women. And one really practical way this comes to life is through something as simple as maternal health. If women die during childbirth, which amazingly still happens in this world, you know, ultimate 880, that is an absolute travesty. And so we need to make sure that women have basic Health Care Like a midwife in the event of an emergency or a csection if needed, so they can deliver safely and live healthy and productive lives. Some people are not going to be able to be in attendance in manhattan for this major concert theyll be watching at home on abc live, for example. So for those folks, what can they do to help . Well, the first thing we want people to do is tune in all across america. So if youre across San Francisco right now, on saturday at 4 p. M, tune into abc news live or sunday night at 7 p. M. Eastern. Tune in and be part of the movement. But secondly, download the Global Citizen app often we can feel like our voices alone dont matter. But when we take action together, our voices are so powerful. You can call on World Leaders and were hoping this weekend we will see amazing responses from the president of france, for example, or the Prime Minister of norway or even im hoping my home country of australia steps up. Prime minister albanese and so were calling on World Leaders and the Us Government. We need the Us Government as part of the upcoming budget not to slash foreign aid. And thats something that every american can be part of. So download the Global Citizen app find an issue that you care about and start taking action. Today you started this. You as a young man years ago in order to tackle the issue of extreme poverty across the world. Do you still believe that we can end extreme poverty in a matter of years . You know, there are some people that like to say that we dont have power and that our voices are so powerless. But i believe that when you see the citizens come together in unison and rally with a united voice, democratically elected leaders have to respond. And so i still believe it is possible for us to end extreme poverty within our lifetime. When i was born in 1983, 52 of the planet lived in extreme poverty. Then by 2019, that number was down to about 12 of the worlds population. A amazing progress within my lifetime. But then the covid 19 pandemic struck the war in ukraine and economic downturn. So we need to double down. We need to take more action now more urgently than ever. And thats why we need citizens to join this movement. Wherever you are across america, we need you join the Global Citizen movement and show how our collective voice can call on World Leaders to respond. Today hugh evans we look forward to seeing you. Miss lauryn hill and company do that thing this weekend. Always good to see you and thanks for all the good work. Thank you, reggie. Sounds like a good show and youll be able to see all the highlights from the Global Citizens concert right here on abc seven starting tomorrow at 4 00 pm. The performers include Red Hot Chili Peppers, miss lauryn hill, Megan Thee Stallion and anita and dnice. So be sure to tune in.

Com so whatever helps us get that good contract, im all for it. Now, at 830, the latest developments with contract negotiations in the United Auto Workers strike and the planned visit from President Biden next week to join the picket line. Good morning to you. Im Gloria Rodriguez and happy saturday day. Meteorologist lisa arjun is here this morning. Lisa, good morning. Is it going to be a nice weekend . Yeah, good morning to you, gloria. The first weekend of fall. Yes we have some changes for the second half of the weekend that i think youll like. But unfortunately, we are starting out with some moderate air quality. It is hazy and we have another spare the air alert today. So that haze is lingering into your saturday. A lot of the smoke was pushed offshore. And then with our onshore flow yesterday, it got pushed right back at us so that will be the case again today as we have a lingually lingering northerly upper level component and so that keeps the smoke in our vicinity. But by late today into tomorrow, we have more blue sky to look forward to and there will not be a spare the air alert. But you look outside here and you get the idea why the air quality is moderate now. But throughout the day it could get poor in the north bay, the coast and central bay, moderate everywhere else. And then by sunday day, this is behind us and we get into more blue sky. One of the better areas right now is the golden gate bridge, where you can see some blue sky, 55 downtown it is 60 in oakland with 57. In san jose. And a look from our exploratorium camera where temperatures are in the low 50s. We were in the 40s earlier from napa to nevada with fog and haze. But as we go through the rest of the morning, the fog is going to clear. So it will be mostly sunny, but we will have that haze. 1 00 just in the low 70s inland. So a cooler than average temperature regime continues. Upper 70s late in the day and well get partly sunny conditions at the shoreline. So certainly not as bad as it was. Well look forward to a little bit of rain that will really wash out the atmosphere and the haze into your monday. Thats coming up. Gloria, thank you so much, lisa. New this morning, California Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed the latest selfdriving truck. Bill that senate backed bill would require a human operator in autonomous trucks, over 10,000 pounds for the next five years, according to the sf chronicle. Governor newsom opted not to sign the legislation, calling it unnecessary. The Teamsters Union represents. 250,000 members and rallied in favor of the bill this past week. They argued that not signing the bill could risk thousands of human jobs being lost at United Auto Workers. Are entering their second week on strike.

We are the union. We are the union. Mighty, mighty union.

The uaw increasing the pressure on General Motors and stellantis friday, expanding its strike to all 38 parts and distribute facilities across 20 states. We will shut down Parts Distribution until those two Companies Come to their senses and come to the table with a serious offer. Stellantis issuing a statement saying that it questions if the unions leadership was daetz to reach an agreement in a timely manner, accusing the union of pursuing their own political agendas rather than the best interests of employees. The union is asking for more than a 40 wage increase over four years, a 32 hour workweek for 40 hours of pay and a restoration of traditional Pension Plans for new workers. So far, the companies have offered a little over half that amount, according to uaw president sean fain. Ford is showing progress on issues like cost of living increases, Profit Sharing and security during layoffs in a statement, ford saying there are still significant gaps to close on the key economic issues. Nobody wants to be out here. We want to be in there working. We want to be, you know, getting parts to our customers and to the dealers. But it comes to a point where you had to draw a line in the sand. And next week, the workers will have some company on the picket lines. President biden saying he will travel to michigan tuesday, saying on formerly twitter that he wants to stand in solidarity with the men and women of uaw as they fight for a fair share of the value they helped create. Lionel moise, abc news, new york. Happening today, hollywood striking writers and the major studios will meet for a fourth straight day. In a statement yesterday, the Writers Guild of america confirmed to its more than 11,000 members that talks will continue this weekend after weeks of inaction, face to face negotiating sessions resumed earlier this week between writers and the alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers as several top studio executives also attended. New developments now. A federal judge has ruled that california cannot ban gun magazines of more than ten rounds. It comes after the Supreme Court last year set a Legal Standard on interpreting gun laws as relying on their Historical Context as opposed to public safety. The ban will likely stay in effect while californias attorney general appeals the ruling pgandes customers will likely see their bills increase in the coming months. The cpuc is expected to vote on two proposed rate plans in november. One raises rates by 9, the other by 11. Pgandes says that an increase is necessary to put 2100 miles of power lines underground, reducing wildfire risk. When you put those lines underground, it reduces the need to do things like tree trimming and maintenance around those lines. And it also far increases reliability. Pgandes wants to put most of its many of its power lines underground that is far too expensive an approach for wildfire safety. The much better approach is to insulate the power lines, which is a faster and cheaper way. State senator scott wiener released a statement saying that the rate increase will place an absurd burden on customers for upgrades that he says should have been performed decades ago. Still ahead on abc7 mornings, elon musk is spending big bucks to oust one San Francisco supervisor in next years election. And lets get a live look outside right now from our exploratorium camera. I know lisa was saying we might see some haziness today so well get a check on your air quality and your forecast coming up in just you didnt choose your hairline.

Like our cretors cheese and caramel mix. Great on their own, even better together. Try cretors, handcrafted smallbatch popcorn. Supervisor received pushback for comments he made about the citys problems with car breakins. But as abc7 News Reporter tim johns tells us, theres a lot more to this story. A post from San Francisco supervisor dean preston now going viral online. On wednesday, preston taking to the social media platform formerly known as twitter to urge the city to launch a campaign telling visitors not to leave things in their cars. The supervisor saying the move would dramatically reduce car break ins. The tweet getting noticed by several of prestons political opponents, including elon musk, who said hed donate 100,000 to help defeat him in the next election. And thats not in stead of enforcement right. The Police Department and the da will work on the enforce side of it. During an interview, preston said his tweet was taken out of context by musk and others. He tells me he believes the city needs a multifaceted approach to tackle the car breaking epidemic. Thats why he hosted a special hearing thursday, bringing together several city agencies to try and find solutions to the problem. Lets actually have real signage with graphics that are clear to people, no matter what language they speak. Lets have Community Ambassador cars who are out there hand ing a similar flier to people as they park San Francisco has averaged between 15 and 20,000 car breakins a year since around 2017. A fact that perpetuates negative perceptions of the city for both locals and visitors alike, says sharky laguana. When visitors come here and their windows are broken and their luggage is stolen or their passports are stolen, their computers are stolen. Uh, it doesnt make them want to come back. Laguana is the president of the american car rental association. He says leaving a car empty doesnt always help, but its certainly no guarantee. Ive had my car broken into many times, and it didnt have anything in it. Laguana says San Francisco has been trying the same failed methods to prevent car break ins for years, and that city leaders need to find new solutions. And this is where were coming up short. Were just unable to catch these people all doing it in San Francisco, tim johns, abc seven news. San francisco is preparing to take the world stage this november for the Asia Pacific Economic cooperation summit, or apec. The city is trying to raise 20 million extra dollars for apec. It is the Biggest International event that the city has hosted in decades, and the money will help host multiple events around the global summit. Political and Business Leaders from across the world are expected to go to apec , including President Biden. Mayor london breed has also set aside 10 million from the citys budget to pay police and City Employees overtime during the event, thousands of extra officers and local, state and federal will also help out. Are we ready . Yes, i think were ready. I think San Francisco is a great place to hold a apec with our large asian population, as many as 30,000 visitors are expected, including two dozen heads of state, 1000 ceos and hundreds of foreign journalists. And starting next year, amazon prime will include limited advertisements and movies and shows, adding ad supported tiers will bring amazon in line with its rivals like netflix and max that are also searching for additional revenue. So customers who want to skip the spots can buy an ad free tier for an additional 2. 99 per month, starting next year. Prime video is included in the 139 yearly prime subscription. Feels like we keep having to pay more and more for these services, right . Lisa oh yeah. Brothers free though, 55 right here at pier 39, where its a little hazy.

There is still time, but you also dont have to participate as part of an organized cleanup. You can do this on your own and lisa, for folks who are going out there today for Coastal Cleanup day, is it a pretty nice day for that . Its going to be a little hazy. Well call it partly sunny out there. Not bad. Its i think tuesday was absolutely the worst day. And then each and every day after that, some haze now and again. And thats why we have another spare the air alert today. They had tropical rain in Southern California yesterday. Cold front is on the way. Well just get into the tail end of it this first weekend of fall will feature some changes on the atlantic seaboard. Its a weekend washout as Tropical Storm ophelia continues to move to the north at about 13 miles an hour. A couple of inches of rain for the carolinas and virginia will get some as well as pennsylvania and boston. Over a half inch of rain for the weekend. Heres a look at santa cruz, 56 degrees and well be into the mid and upper 60s here with some sun later on. You, too, could pick up a couple of rain drops into monday, 59in Mountain View and palo alto and half moon bay. And you can see a hazy looking view here from our roof camera. It is 55 in santa rosa, 54 in fairfield. Overnight lows have been in the 40s for novato and napa has been certainly chilly out there feeling like fall and look at the haze from sfo. So spare the air alert today. Hazy skies again with much better air quality for sunday and a chance for some very early season raindrops. We usually can go right through october. As you know, with no rain at all. But theres been nothing typical about this summer. So well look for the fog to clear. Getting into some haze. And then as the fog moves back overnight night, high clouds accompany the low clouds and well get that through the afternoon on sunday. But in terms of temperatures, really nothing changes here. We get into the better air quality tomorrow. Still in the upper 70s, this is livermore shy of the 83. And then on monday, the cold front moves through. But really getting behind the cold front and really not seeing much in terms of a warm up there. It is bringing 2 to 4in of rain for the pacific northwest, maybe a half inch to three quarters of an inch for extreme Northern California to pretty much putting out those fires to the north of us. Thats some great news. But as it moves in, it weakens significantly. So well just get a few drops, maybe a 10th of an inch at best. At this point, looking up towards santa rosa, napa, a few one hundredths, but you can see up towards ukiah better than a third of an inch. So well take that. And as for your highs today, its been kind of cool with the sea breeze picking up in the afternoon. Weve had the smoke push offshore, then it moves back in. In terms of the onshore winds, usually cleaning things out, but not quite because we still have the upper level winds out of the north. 68 today in oakland. Look for 71 in fremont, only mid 70s in san jose. Should see the low 80s this time of year and well see low 70s up in napa as well. So hazy skies a mild day today. Good air quality for your sunday. A chance of showers for the middle of the day on monday. The end late monday and then our warmest day of the week is going to be wednesday. We will see numbers in the mid 80s inland, mid 70s around the bay, but it wont last. Another trough wants to visit us thursday and friday, bringing in some cooler air. So certainly a fall feel out there. I think it has been feeling that way. Yeah, its been really nice. I love this weather. Yeah. No heat, no extremes. Yeah. And then a little bit of rain. We can use a little rain. Yeah, definitely. Yeah thank you, lisa. Well a new farm is now open in one of the busiest areas in the south bay. Its apparently the largest urban farm in the state.
