The Friends of Kimbell Community Garden
We’re a passionate group of neighbors from Japantown, NoPa / Anza Vista, the Western Addition, Alamo Square, Lower Pac Heights, and beyond, united to transform an underused space at Kimbell Recreation Area into a vibrant urban garden.
In collaboration with SF Rec & Parks and a local landscape architect, we are developing a proposal for a community garden at Geary Blvd (cross-street: Steiner St). The proposed space is ~5,500 sq ft. Our vision includes 45+ raised beds and communal areas for growing, gathering, and connecting.
Partnering with Greening Projects, a registered 501(c)(3), we’ve launched our Growth Journey with an estimated project budget of $900,000. We are currently focused on reaching our first milestone: the $100,000 Seedling Phase to activate the space.
