Garden Centers Club






The Laguna Woods Garden Centers, a community amenity, provides rental plots for organic gardening for residents of the village. Many of our residents are interested in working their own flower and vegetable gardens or nurturing their own tree plots.
Laguna Woods Village proudly provides two beautiful Garden Centers for those who love working the soil and making beautiful plants grow. Garden Center 1 features 172 garden plots, 132 tree plots and four equipment sheds. Garden Center 2 features 596 garden plots, 118 tree plots, one shade house with 26 benches for orchids and plants and 4 equipment sheds.
The Garden Centers Club advocates for the upkeep and care for the vegetable, flower and fruit community garden plots that are maintained by Laguna Woods residents.
Our Mission | The primary goals of the Garden Centers Club are the teaching and promotion of healthy, sustainable, and organic garden practices both above and below the soil. Besides providing camaraderie and encouraging a love of organic nature and the outdoors, we assist in ensuring food security for our Senior Community and are helping preserve the pollinators in the area.

Farmer’s Market
Charity sale in support of local Meals on Wheels. In July when the gardens are overflowing, we ask all gardeners to contribute their excess produce, flowers and plants. We sell these to the residents of Laguna Woods and give the money to Florence Sylvester Memorial Center to pay for meals for Laguna Woods residents.
Wine and Cheese Parties
In summer, the club hosts a series of wine and cheese parties in the gardens. This gives a chance to those in one garden to meet and tour the other garden. This is an informal event for all gardeners who normally don’t interact.
Many of our Guest Speakers are UCCE Master Gardeners of Orange County. Click on these links to their website which provides so much useful gardening information including a Hotline for Gardening Questions and free downloadable Gardening Brochures.
