Gardening in Oakland

Plots, houseplants, allotments, first tomatoes. Swap growing knowledge with gardeners in your climate.

Gardening advice is local: what thrives in your zone, when your last frost really is, which nursery has the good tomato starts. Tell Peachy what you grow and where, and when someone three streets over divides their hostas, you hear about it first.

Oakland has always run on word of mouth, and Peachy is built for exactly that. Say you're looking in Oakland and posts from people across the town reach you, from Temescal to Fruitvale to the Lake. Say how far you'll travel and the rest of the East Bay comes with it.

Say it in your own words

You describe what you’re looking for the way you’d tell a friend, and your Feed shows the posts from your friends, mutuals and communities that match.

“Show me vegetable gardening posts from people in Oakland.”

“Tell me when someone shares seeds or divides perennials near Oakland.”

“Surface houseplant help. My monstera is being dramatic again.”

How it works

  1. Join in a minute

    Sign up with your phone number. Peachy is a chat app: your people, your group chats and your communities.

  2. Filter it, if you like

    Your Feed starts as everything, newest first. Turn on a paragraph filter, a few plain words like the examples above, place included, and only matching posts show. Turn it off any time.

  3. See what matters to you

    Your Feed shows posts from your friends, mutuals and communities: all of them, or only the ones that match your paragraph. Public posts from everyone else stay under Public, and your private chats are never part of it.
