The Ron Finley Project, the beloved South L.A. community garden that braved a months-long court battle after being threatened with eviction earlier this year, is keeping its roots firmly planted on Exposition Boulevard. Owing to a successful crowd-funding campaign and donations from some of the biggest names in the organic food industry, the nonprofit raised $ 550,000 and bought back the property from the real estate development company that purchased it for $ 379,003 at a foreclosure auction in November.
