Overview

Diari el Jardí de Sant Gervasi i Sarrià (commonly El Jardí) is a free monthly publication focused on the Sarrià - Sant Gervasi district of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. It was founded in 2014 by Jesús Mestre and Martí Rodríguez, who had previously worked at the magazine La Fada de Sarrià. They established the company El Jardí de Sant Gervasi SL, choosing the name as a nod to the historic garden-city identity of the area. The first issue appeared in November 2014, and Jesús Mestre served as director from 2014 to 2018. The publication is distributed free of charge and covers local news, politics, culture, economy, sports, food and nutrition, science and nature, interviews, opinion, and an agenda of events.

Its website, diarieljardi.cat, extends the print edition with daily online reporting, a newsletter, and subscriber features.

El Jardí positions itself as a hyperlocal, community-oriented news source for the district, combining free print distribution with a digital presence. It has covered local issues ranging from public space and historical memory to health and science topics relevant to residents.
