Greystone Demonstration Garden

Greystone Demonstration Garden Greystone Demonstration Garden is located at the famed Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills.

The Greystone Demonstration Garden is a project that was proposed about eight years ago by Barbara Linder when she was a Human Relations Commissioner for the city of Beverly Hills, as a means of bringing together members of the community. Over the years, many people have contributed to the garden: at least 10 Boy Scouts have achieved Eagle status with projects completed in the garden; our beautifu

l fence and raised beds were built by Armstrong Garden Center to celebrate their 100th birthday; we developed a local 4-H unit, and have held a farm to table camp for children. Our biggest piece of luck was finding George Pessin, Master Gardener, to teach classes in the garden. The garden is managed by Barbara Linder, a community volunteer, and Master Gardener, George Pessin.
