Grab your gloves — it’s time to get our hands dirty!

The East Bay Permaculture Guild is partnering with the Oakland Peace Center for community garden work day on 6/20 as another follow-up to our big unconference spring 2026 edition. This is the foundation of a long-term edible + medicinal community garden project that will share fresh food with OPC neighbors, Wood St. Commons, and building organizations serving unhoused community members.

RSVP here so we can plan tools + food.

On the agenda:

🪵Water and Weed

🪧 Make and place some signs  

Mulch garden beds

🪣 Begin clearing the area near the building entrance (from parking lot)

Snacks and lunch provided

Have something you would like to add to the agenda? Let us know!

Whether you’re an experienced gardener or a total beginner, we need you! Come for an hour or stay the whole day.

We’re aiming for ~12 volunteers and need 5–6 experienced gardeners/project leads to help manage work teams.

This garden is rooted in a 2.5-year vision: an edible, medicinal, community-tended space for all who call OPC home.
