Ecosystem
Communities
The people who sustain El Depa every day—from the kitchen and logistics to administration, communications, and care for our shared space.
Our commitment is to build dignified, sustainable working conditions aligned with our values, caring for the people who make this collective project possible.
Our queer community and those who have walked alongside El Depa since our beginnings in Santurce.
They are the people who have believed in, supported, celebrated, and defended this vision, helping us sustain and grow this food oasis.
Our closest network of farmers, neighbors, and community organizers.
Here, we cultivate trust, shared knowledge, and mutual support. San Salvador is more than where we are located: it is our roots, our community, and our present.
The people who grow the food and knowledge that sustain our work. We purchase their harvests, support their projects through ABONO microgrants, and learn from their knowledge and practices.
They are our teachers. Without farmers, there is no kitchen, no food sovereignty, and no food future.
Our co-conspirators in creating workshops, experiences, and educational resources.
Artists, educators, cooks, agroecologists, healers, and allies who share their knowledge and expand what El Depa can imagine, learn, and build collectively.
