Community Gardens of Santa Clarita

The Community Gardens of Santa Clarita, located in Central Park, is a non-profit organization that was started in 2010 whose mission is to create a community facility that provides a peaceful, welcoming place where individuals can come together to promote the benefits of locally grown, organic food that is environmentally friendly, sustainable, and cost effective and which delivers economic, health and educational benefits to a wide array of valley residents!

Food grown in the Community Gardens is enjoyed by residents and donated to local organizations, including Help the Children and the Santa Clarita Valley Food Pantry. Community members and groups must agree to use only organic methods to grow pesticide-free produce.

The gardens are equipped with raised garden plots to accommodate wheelchair-bound residents in the Santa Clarita Valley and include fruit trees and a butterfly garden, providing a beautiful sanctuary for families to enjoy the pleasures and benefits of gardening together. The Community Gardens of Santa Clarita encourages all of those that are interested, to continue to send in application to be placed on the waitlist to get your own plot as soon as one becomes available!
