The Oakhurst Community Garden Project teaches environmental awareness to diverse local students through hands-on gardening and outdoor education programs. We are dedicated to empowering young people to become the next generation of environmental stewards by engaging in projects that address real needs. Respect for the earth and each other underlies all our efforts. By teaching about wellness, teamwork, and conservation, we hope to empower youth to take charge of their own health, as well as that of the environment. In addition to our work with young people, we also host adult classes on a wide range of topics, and have regular garden work days and host popular community events.
