At the heart of our work is Advocacy: building power at the base. This work is critical as local entrepreneurs face deep imbalances of power in negotiating with governments and corporations around systematic issues such as large-scale small business displacement. We work to to protect our communities, such The Berryessa Flea Market (La Pulga) which is facing displacement pressure. We are proud to support the Berryessa Flea Market Vendors Association. The Flea Market is of great importance to the local economy, a vibrant neighborhood culture and financially secure families.
