Mission Statement
Long Beach Organic strives to promote sustainability and raise awareness of environmental issues by providing organic garden plots to Long Beach City residents. We have accomplished this mission by seeking out vacant lots in the city and transforming them into vibrant community gardens in an urban environment.
Description
Help LBO Continue to Grow and Serve Our Community by volunteering!
Long Beach Organic, a 501 c (3) nonprofit, relies on the support of the community to make community gardens possible in an urban environment. Each of our unique locations adds value and neighborhood improvements to all the communities we serve by transforming once vacant and blighted lots into thriving community gardens. Our gardens help unite communities, promote wellbeing, provide education, and encourage sustainability in the City of Long Beach.
Our gardeners enjoy getting their hands dirty and harvesting the fruits of their labor, while also supporting those less fortunate in the community by donating excess produce and volunteering to maintain our plots designated for charity.
