South Laguna Community Garden Park

Come to the Fall Festival and Potluck this Saturday, 9/28, 3-6!

We are having quite a successful tomato season at the Garden! This year we raised 350 disease resistant plants and held a seedling sale for the community. We predicted which varieties would thrive in our coastal climate, and for the most part were right on. For the first time ever, gardeners are swimming in tomatoes! If you bought plants and are raising them at home, please share your growing and tasting notes. We will be deciding which varieties to raise next year. Look out for our next seedling sale in the spring!

This community garden is a testament to the power of collaboration.

Curitiba, Brazil has a well-established program of transforming unused urban land into community gardens. These gardens are indeed community-owned and managed, focusing on improving food security, building social cohesion, and promoting environmental sustainability.

Come on down to the Arts and Crafts Fair at the Garden today, 3-7! There will be music, and a kids craft table. Stroll around the garden and see what’s growing while supporting local artists!
