Lovely small public garden near Golden Gate Park (but outside it). A peaceful little gem with calming plants and trees, all lovingly labeled, and a large set of benches to sit among them.

Amazed at the health, variety, and general appearance of this community garden. Beehives, many boxes, 1000s of bees thrive. SEP '24

Absolutely beautiful multi-level garden occupying multiple building plots on the Sunset-side of Sutro. Lovely stumbling upon this on my walk.

I went here for a field trip and everybody was so nice. Peter was also really chill and sounded like Tyler, The Creator and he loved it when my friends and I told him that. The only thing I didn't like was Makayla. She was mean and was sorta disrespectful to me and my 5th grade class, but other than that it was good and I really look forward to going here again for fun and seeing everybody but Makayla! 😛 I also had so much fun doing the art activity with Peter and Tommy!

Cool little spot over in the Sunset. I went for a workshop that unfortunately was cancelled but it ended up being a nice outing even so. Lots of cool low moisture options for the home garden.

Amazing organic SF demo garden! Plenty of classes to learn throughout the year... Running water to a sink, faucet and and bottle station are great additions. The garden is thriving and doing so well.
