Gardening attire looks a little different for everyone. What do you wear?
Magical moments on Tremont street 💕
New beds, new babies, so much love and support from family, friends and neighbors. Building this garden has been a labor of love and we are so proud of the progress we have made so far!! We invite you to come for a stroll, stay for a snack, and pick something special for your next meal.
Another bed on Tremont Street!

More than an urban garden.
At @theplotgardenproject , we’re more than an urban garden: we’re a living hub for food sovereignty, environmental healing, and community resilience in South Oceanside. By transforming concrete spaces into thriving ecosystems, we cultivate not just nutrient-dense food, but also knowledge, innovation, and connection. Our work is rooted in the belief that local, plant-based food systems can cool our cities, nourish our bodies, and empower our community.
This is our tremont project where the community can come and harvest, squash, tomatoes, eggplant and so much more.
En @theplotgardenproject , somos más que un huerto urbano: somos un centro vivo de soberanía alimentaria, sanación ambiental y resiliencia comunitaria en South Oceanside. Al transformar espacios de concreto en ecosistemas prósperos, cultivamos no solo alimentos ricos en nutrientes, sino también conocimiento, innovación y conexión. Nuestro trabajo se basa en la creencia de que los sistemas alimentarios locales basados en plantas pueden enfriar nuestras ciudades, nutrir nuestros cuerpos y fortalecer a nuestra comunidad.
Get your cut!
So much eggplant ready to harvest in the Tremont Street Garden! Make sure to get your cut !
This Kale is not that kale.
There’s something really special, and satisfying, about growing your own food.
You can taste the difference, and nothing compares to watching something you’ve planted go from seed to a fully grown vegetable, fruit, herb or leafy green, like kale.
Chef Davin spends hours in the garden every week: planting, watering, weeding, trimming, harvesting, and paying attention to what the garden needs and what might spark the next dish. It’s a lot of work and it doesn’t always look pretty… but it gives him and our culinary team the chance to grow delicious things, cook with them, and share them with you at the table. Feeding our friends, family, guests and community… that’s what makes it all worth it.
pick it. cook it. share it.
harvest something from the community garden on Tremont Street, turn it into something delicious, and share it with us.

“to plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow” -Audrey Hepburn
gardening is an act of profound hope and optimism, and of resilience. When we garden our streets we take back our power to nourish our families and our communities ❤️🔥🌱

Tremont street!
We are making so much progress, and enjoying the peace of gardening in this beautiful neighborhood ☀️
How does Chef Davin decide what goes on the menu? 🌱
Sometimes it’s not a recipe. Sometimes, it’s Mother Nature.
Growing food at a restaurant doesn’t mean producing everything — it means paying attention. Letting the garden shape the conversation, inspire new ideas, and create parameters that push creativity in unexpected directions. Our tasting menu changes because the garden changes, and that’s part of the fun.
Big love to Keith for joining us, talking plants, creativity, and helping tell our story ❤️🌱
Amazingness.
Some amazingness in the garden with Chef Davin Waite.
Squash, mango, rhubarb, rau ram, tomatoes, and so much kale!!!
What if …
What if we start growing food everywhere? If we take back our power over our health, create economic resilience in our communities, and embrace the flavors and smells of fresh veggies and herbs? Green space everywhere, more time outside, more peace and presence. This sounds like paradise to us 🫶🌱
CELEBRATING EARTH DAY
HAPPY EARTH DAY!
to celebrate we would love to share an update on The Plot Garden Project.
TPGP is our nonprofit urban garden and food lab in south oceanside. we’re building spaces that connect people to food, soil, and each other, while making sustainable, nourishing food more accessible to our community.
right now, we’re turning that vision into something you can actually see, walk through, and be a part of. check out the pics below or come by and say hi in person!
PROJECT UPDATES:
project one: south o’ alleyway garden -- ALMOST DONE!
what used to be a cracked concrete dumpster area is almost unrecognizable. we’re transforming it into a small urban oasis, complete with raised beds, wood chip pathways, and a living, breathing perimeter.
project two: tremont street garden -- EPIC PROGRESS
this one is big and we’ve made HUGE strides 🌱
we’re transforming a long, underutilized stretch along tremont street into a community lane garden, a space designed to be seen, shared, and experienced.
WANT TO HEAR SOMETHING RAD??!! the tremont street garden will be available to all! community members can stop by the garden and harvest fresh produce for their home cooked meals! what we are growing and tips for harvesting will be on our website, stay tuned!
thank you so much for your support in this effort. and very big thanks to our donors and Waste Management for the 15 yards of soil and your commitment to The Plot Garden Project.
