Earth Day garden party to be held in Community Gardens

COMMUNITY GARDENS

On Tuesday, April 22, in celebration of Earth Day, the Recreation Department will host a garden party in the Leisure World Community Gardens from 1-4 p.m. Join friends and neighbors for food, music, activities, games and prizes.

To show the community’s generous spirit for helping those in need, there will also be a food drive benefiting the Orange County Food Bank. Raffle tickets will be given to people who donate non-perishable, non-expired food items.

During the party, all are encouraged to check out the community garden and admire what neighbors are growing in the gardens.

Spots at the Community Gardens are still available for immediate lease. First, fill out an application by going to the Leisure World website, lwsb.com. Find the Community Tab and select the Community Garden Waitlist. Applicants will receive a letter with their assigned spot.

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