Check out ‘Garden Buzz’

The Community Gardens now have an online hub: Garden Buzz, available at lwsb.com under the “News” tab. There, people can find the latest news about the Community Gardens, read stories, learn gardening tips and share comments and suggestions.

Residents are invited to start their spring gardening by signing up for a garden plot. Spots are available for lease. To join, visit the Leisure World website, lwsb.com. Find the “Community” tab, then select “Community Gardens Application.” Complete the online form. People who apply will receive a letter from the Recreation Department with their assigned spot.

For more information, contact Julie O’Brien at minifarm@lwsb. com or call 562-431-6586, ext. 2314.

Helen Becker and Barbara Gardner of Mutual 2 said sharing a garden "works great for us," adding, "It was nice to have salads for dinner every night this past summer."
