Plot Information

Registration Process

This year we will begin planting on May 1st, 2025.

Sign-up is online. We hope this process will make joining the garden simple and easy. If you need any help or have any questions, please reach out to us.

When signing up, you will need to pick a time during the first week of May to come to the garden for an intake meeting. We will introduce you to the garden, review garden etiquette, policies, and you will get the chance to pick out your box and start planting!

If you are a returning gardener, you do not need to pick a day for an intake meeting, please contact us if you would like the same box. We cannot guarantee you will receive the same box, but we will try our best.

Space is limited in the garden. Once you are signed up for the garden, we will send you a confirmation email. This will include the link to the payment process. Cost is $15 (scholarships are available). You are also welcome to pay in-person during intake meeting or next garden session.

You will also be notified if you have been placed on our waitlist.

We currently have (12) garden plots. (3) of these are accessible plots on a paved sidewalk.

Registered gardeners are responsible for keeping their addresses and phone numbers current. If we are unable to reach you after (5) attempts (disconnected phone, returned email or mail, etc.) we will have to conclude that the plot is abandoned and offer to someone on the waiting list.

Plot registration is required annually.

Garden Basics

Community Gardens are meant to be a free, inclusive, and happy place for people to gather to grow produce and make social connections. In order for this to happen, we must all work together to maintain and grow in this shared space.

We ask that gardeners keep the pathways next to their garden boxes free from weeds, garbage and plants, in order to prevent others from getting hurt or injured.

Ecologically, organic gardening is encouraged and expected in the garden. Chemicals such as herbicides (weed killers), and insecticides (insect killers) are not allowed. Please consult with us or Master Gardener if you unsure about something prior to using it in your box. We are offer free plant food, and other necessities at the garden for use.
