Crops in East Sacramento?

Rows of summer corn, mini orchards, munchkin squash patches? Community gardening in East Sacramento may soon be taking a turn. Our city is considering a proposal to amend its zoning law which prohibits agriculture in residential or non-agriculture zones. For East Sacramento passage of the amendment would mean that community gardens could be developed on private land.

Learn more about the proposal here:

Report to Planning Commision

The public hearing for the proposed community garden ordinance will be on the Sacramento City Council agenda for a public hearing on Tuesday, July 26th at 6 pm.  The staff report will be available on Friday, July 22nd

Contact: Joy Patterson, Principal Planner, (916) 808-5607, Community Development Department
