Growing It Together showcases community gardens and growing food in small spaces. In each episode, we travel to a different community garden to meet the gardeners and explore what they’re growing. Viewers will tune in to learn about growing specific crops each week and how to use them at home.

Why Growing It Together?

There are hundreds of community gardens in Los Angeles and most people don’t know they exist. We aim to highlight community growing spaces and connect people to places where they can grow. In subsequent seasons, we venture outside LA borders to the rest of California, and beyond.
