Quick Facts
The UC San Diego Student Center Garden, created and cared for by University Centers, nurtures community and promotes sustainability through educational workshops and programs that empower students to engage with food systems, enhance mental well-being, and foster environmental stewardship.
The garden workshops are completely free to the UC San Diego community. The Garden Workshop Series is for every member of the community, meaning you don't have to be a part of a club or any other organization in order to attend. Just show up at the garden with your UC San Diego ID at 11am on designated Fridays.
If you would like more information about the Student Center Garden or have specific inquiries, please email the University Centers Sustainability Assistant at ucensustain@ucsd.edu.
Workshops are held monthly on Fridays at 11am during the academic year.
