Fountain Community Garden Volunteer Days

Fountain Community Garden Volunteer Days

Located on Fountain Avenue near the iconic 101 Freeway, Fountain Community Gardens (FCG) was founded on June 6, 2009, by the City of Los Angeles to create a beautiful and peaceful oasis in East Hollywood for organic community gardening. FCG provides a diverse, inclusive space for anyone interested in growing their own fruits and vegetables.

We have volunteer days every second Saturday of the month, but in addition to that, we also host special volunteer days.

Join us for a fun-filled day of gardening at FCG! Our volunteer days are a great way to give back to the community and connect with fellow green thumbs. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just starting out, everyone is welcome to lend a hand.

From turning compost piles, spreading mulch, weeding, and cleaning up garden boxes, there’s always something to do in the garden. You’ll also have the chance to chat with other gardening enthusiasts, share tips, and make new friends.

No prior experience is necessary, as we will provide all the tools and guidance needed. Just bring your enthusiasm, energy, and a willingness to get your hands dirty!

What to Bring:

✅ Comfortable clothing and shoes suitable for outdoor work

✅ Gardening gloves (if you have them)

✅ Sunscreen, a hat, and a water bottle to stay hydrated
