We learn about low desert gardening from our Master Gardeners, Linda R., Linda T., Bob, Bill, and Kelly, and we socialize with fellow plant lovers. Beginners who have never gardened before or are baffled by desert gardening are welcome.  All ages from 1-100 are welcome to attend Ahwatukee Community Garden gardening sessions!

Demo Garden
The Ahwatukee Community Garden Demo Garden was built and initially planted in the summer of 2012.

Since then we have provided produce to a local food bank.  We also share vegetables, herbs, and flowers with gardeners and volunteers.
