Gardening As A Community
growing passion (create)

If you want to garden but don't have the space or don't want to go it alone, don't give up! Like many other regions of the country, San Diego County is home to dozens of community gardens. In these collections of small plots, friends and neighbors grow a bounty of produce; sometimes enough to sell at local farmer's market or through Community Supported Agriculture. Community gardens are where people and families of all ages, cultures, and experiences grow together and learn from one another. Over time, strangers become family and families become community. In this show, we visit a variety of community gardens and celebrate the communities that thrive in these shared spaces.

About Growing Passion (Create):

From earth-friendly and water-wise gardens to organic foods and habitat restoration, San Diegans demand options that protect our health, feed our communities and protect our natural resources.

Hosted by Nan Sterman, A Growing Passion explores backyard food production, major horticultural growers, low-water landscapes and sustainable practices around the home and in the garden.
