Pacifica Gardens is a project to create a community-run biointensive and permaculture garden in Pacifica, California.
The community garden site is a level parcel of land on the grounds of the former Linda Mar School. As a partnership with the City of Pacifica and the San Francisco Botanical Garden's Adult Education Program, the garden will be a demonstration center for biointensive gardening and permaculture techniques. Pacifica Gardens will be both an educational experience and a source of food and jobs for the local community. Contact: Melissa Moss.
