Laurel Community Garden
Workshops
"Let's Talk Trash!" is a hands-on experience that looks at what our waste is, where it comes from, and where it goes once we "throw it away." We also focus on ways we can change our habits and routines to live more collectively healthier lives. It's a great introduction to zero waste for any age!

AKA "The Garden" has long been a sanctuary in East Oakland maintained and visited by homeschool groups, foragers and neighbors. It is home to native and introduced plants, pollinators, and animal relatives.
The Garden's existence is a testament to what can happen when people choose to care beyond the concept of land ownership (because no one can really own Earth).
Recognizing its legacy and the need for spaces like it to be preserved, and continued, especially for Black and Indigenous families and community members, we are asking for folks to help us make The Garden's functions intentional and recognizable.
