Farm + Food Lab @ Orange County Great Park

The Farm + Food Lab is a unique and interactive outdoor classroom for visitors of all ages, featuring themed raised-bed gardens, fruit trees, vertical gardening, a chicken coop, a worm compost bin and solar and wind-powered lights. It is a working and dynamic organic horticulture area with a mission to educate visitors about gardening, inspire innovative and unique ideas and facilitate a thriving community of people working in partnership. Visitors can experience the Pizza and Spaghetti Garden or Butterfly Garden, witness a brood of hens provide eggs, participate in a gourd-chestra using gourds to make music, or take a class on pickling or canning. Open seven days a week and staffed by University of California Cooperative Extension Master Gardeners, the Farm + Food Lab is the perfect place to enhance your gardening knowledge or learn the basics about starting your first garden.
