Rinconada Community Garden

"It is not only a wonderful place for people to grow their favorite veggies but also a great place to meet your neighbors. For a modest fee you get a small plot of land and the city provides water, compost and wood chips to cover ty paths. Your responsibility is to keep your plot and plot surrounding paths weed free and to provide a couple hours of labor to keep common areas weed free."

"Palo Alto has several community gardens. The Rinconada garden is next to the library and art center. Be sure to stroll the paths once it reopens to the public."

"Neighbors grow their own veggies and also has a nearby park."

"I got many ideas on how to setup my garden at home. Many vegetables and fruits are available there as well."

"This is a large community garden located right next to Rinconada Library. Local residents work in the garden at their leisure and are often willing to discuss what they are planting. The garden has a wide variety of vegetables and flowers, which for me were the main attraction. There is also a lot of wildlife around: birds, bees for days. Some squirrels in nearby trees. Its a really nice area to go and relax. Smells great."
