Community gardening is a fun form of urban agriculture that helps grow healthy communities. Growing your own food, either at home or in a Long Beach community garden, contributes to local food security & to a healthy, sustainable, eco-friendly & animal-friendly lifestyle

(be sure to add chickens & goats to your Long Beach community garden or urban farm).

Long Beach Grows is contributing to the City of Long Beach’s sustainability goal of establishing community gardens in every park 5 acres or larger by 2020, converting 100% of city owned vacant lots to interim or better yet permanent green uses, and creating new permanent green spaces, including community gardens and urban farms.
