Pilot program's length unsettles neighbors, farmers.
Earlier this month, The City announced a new skatepark would replace a beloved farmers market in the heart of San Francisco's Civic Center. Now, farmers and residents are fighting back.
The City's plan to"activate" the beleaguered U.N. Plaza includes pouring asphalt over the plaza's iconic bricks to create a skate park and installing ping pong tables to make the space more desirable for people to spend time in. "It just came out of nowhere," said Nick Cipponeri of Cipponeri Family Farms, whose family has worked the market since 1981. For him, the move is just another blow, making his ability to come to the market even more difficult.
"We're working every day," said Grace Teresi of Miramonte Farms, who drives two hours every Wednesday and Sunday to the market from San Juan Bautista.

That's why he has asked The City to help with the transition. He's asked officials to fund the move, provide lighting to help farmers set up in the predawn hours and weights to tie down tents.
