Gardens “The Heart of Oakland”– Oakland Magazine
OAKLAND MAGAZINE – “AAA’s Via magazine proclaimed The Gardens at Lake Merritt one of the top five California gardens, yet this Oakland oasis still remains a charming little secret for many locals.”
“If Lake Merritt is considered the gem of Oakland, then the 50-year-old gardens are the city’s heart. ”
““A garden is a reflection of its community. Oakland is awakening and renewing. This is a garden by the people, for the people. It exists today due to selflessness, volunteerism, and a dedication to nurture the unique and remarkable.””
