Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the garden will not be open until further notice. Please feel free to follow our social media and check out our calendar to join in on this year's virtual programming! Check back soon for updates on the garden.
Dig creates a space for the community to come together and learn about the process of growing food and our food systems through hands-on learning. Our goal is to foster the relationship between nature, humans, and fresh, healthy food. All levels of experience and interest are welcome.
The garden located in Sunset Canyon Recreation Center was first established by UCLA's largest environmental student organization, E3: Ecology, Economy, Equity, in 2006. As the garden became more demanding of its own infrastructure and leadership, Dig at UCLA was formed in 2012 as a distinct organization. Now Dig stands as a unique student group on campus that focuses on using peer learning and the garden space to educate one another about food, activism, health, and sustainability.

Events
Join us on Sundays from 12-2pm PST for workshops on everything from container gardening to flower pressing to food justice! Check out the calendar below for details.
Note: New folks are always welcome. There are no requirements or expectations involved with Dig--we pride ourselves on being informal, and all members can be as involved or non-involved as they want. None of our events assume prior attendance or experience. That being said, experts often find new information in our workshops as well!

Live on the other side of the world and/or slept through your favorite workshop? No worries! We keep recordings and materials from past workshops in our archive.
Finally, here's a beautiful drawing from one of our leaders, Yuerong:)
