How community gardens grow food and give back

Description:

Food costs are continuing to squeeze San Diegans' pocketbooks, and that means accessing healthy food is getting harder for families.


The San Diego Hunger Coalition found that as of December 2025, more than 1 in 4 San Diegans are nutrition insecure.

Local community gardens have helped fill in that gap, giving people the space to grow their own fresh produce while also giving it back to the community.


Monday on Midday Edition, we talk about how one local community garden has shaped fresh food access in southeast San Diego — and what you might need to know to start growing your own produce in your backyard.
