"Dig-ins" occur every Sunday at 12:30 pm at the garden in Sunset Canyon Recreation Center
Dig-ins are workdays that offer students the opportunity to learn hands on in the garden through instructions and tips from fellow members as well as occasional workshops from outside community leaders.
Workdays run from an hour to two hours, but you may come and go as you please.
These workdays give students the chance to relax in-between studying and enjoy the beautiful climate of Los Angeles.

We want your leftover scraps!
Help us by bringing your left over food scraps for us to use in our compost!
Great compost gives us amazing results like this healthy kale and arugula shown right and keeps waste out of landfills.
Below are some requirements on items we want and those we cannot take due to the scale of our system. You may deliver your scraps at anytime to our black compost bin found at the end of our garden behind the L shape bed.
