Do you like to garden?

Kaiser Permanente San Francisco has a long history of supporting community gardens all over San Francisco — from Chinatown to the Sunset District.

These gardens grow food, are open to the community, and provide a healthy activity for city residents. In addition to funding, we coordinate garden days to bring volunteers and community residents together for planting, weeding, and tending, rain or shine.
