… Jointly managed by the Resource Conservation District of Greater San Diego County and the County of San Diego, this community garden is the largest of its kind in the region. Located amidst horse ranches in the city’s southernmost stretch, the garden spans the Tijuana River Valley Regional Park with more than 200 plots, including 10 quarter-acre farms leased for $324 to $1,600 per year.
