About Us The Larkspur Community Garden began in 1982. It is a community of 73 small garden plots and a communal orchard for residents of Larkspur or Greenbrae . It is located in Piper Park. We encourage gardeners to grow vegetables and flowers using organic techniques and also encourage gardeners to grow as a community. We work together to learn about composting and watering, other gardeners' expertise and sharing harvests with local food banks in an ongoing year-round opportunity. Each gardner is assigned a plot, roughly 15'x 17'. Garden members recycle vegetable scraps, along with wood chips supplied by the city, to produce our own compost. Gardeners participate in two garden-wide workdays per year, spring and fall, with improvement projects to clear weeds, repair tools and care for our orchard trees. We receive recreation and hands-in-the-soil benefits. If you are interested in joining the garden community and if you live in Larkspur or Greenbrae, sign up with the Larkspur Recreation Department.

A Killdeer lays it eggs on the bare ground in our orchard. The pair had three new chicks this year.
