City of Oakland Community Gardens Program
The City of Oakland's Community Gardens Program provides 16 community gardens and 17 youth programs citywide. Our youth programs provide children ages 4-13 with the opportunity to learn where their food comes from, growing organic herbs and vegetables for cooking onsite at recreation centers, or at home with their families. Please contact program coordinator Peter Collier at 510.238.2197 for more information, or send him an email at pcollier@oaklandnet.com. You can also visit a City of Oakland recreation center to see how you can get involved in teaching kids the importance of food justice, education, and cultivation!
