City of Oakland Projects

Community Gardening in Oakland
A program of the City of Oakland's Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services. Community Gardening is an Oakland sponsored program serving neighborhood gardens located throughout the city. At each garden, a diverse and dedicated group of gardeners -- and youth of all ages -- grow their own organic vegetables, flowers, herbs, and fruit in 10' x 15' plots.

How You Can Get Involved: Community Gardens depend on recycled and donated materials. We are looking for the following in-kind donations: Computer, seeds, fencing materials, tools, benches, picnic tables, recycled non-treated lumber, display boards.
For more information: Contact the Community Garden Coordinator, Jacoba van Staveren, Oakland Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services Community Gardens, 1520 Lakeside Drive, Oakland, 94612. (510) 238-2197
