What is a Community Garden?

Simi at the Garden is an all organic community garden where everyone in the community can come together to connect with nature, learn, volunteer, interact, serve, heal and grow as individuals and as a community. It is also a place to raise fruits, vegetables, flowers and herbs, and participate in the stewardship of healthy, biodiverse ecosystems.
