The South Laguna Community Garden Park organization says a deal to purchase the garden park property for $2 million is currently in escrow and fundraising efforts are underway.
Fourteen years ago, a group of volunteers began the transformation of an empty lot in the Orange County neighborhood of South Laguna into what has become a beloved spot for gardening enthusiasts and residents alike.
“We met with him a week and a half ago. Mark Christy came, and he is serving as our buyer’s representative. He said, ‘We’ll have an offer for you tomorrow,’ which was the following Tuesday, and by Friday, we had a confirmation of our offer.” “We are in a very tight time frame,” Christoph added. “So grateful that the council has provided for this particular item, to make your commitment that you’ve made for many years, always thinking, ‘This will never happen. Why are we doing this again? You guys haven’t produced anything.’ But now, here we are.”
“There is a 501 in process right now, being formed, to be the owner and operator of the garden. It’s not in place yet. … We will serve at the foundation as the owner of that property until such time as the 501 is in place.”
