Guidelines for Garden Plots

Key Dates

  • March 15 – Garden assignments renews annually, to keep your plot, confirm renewal with the Coordinator

  • May 1 – Payment due

  • June 10 – Unworked plots may be forfeited and reassigned

  • October 30 – All gardens must be cleaned and winterized

Maintence Guidelines

  1. Gardens must be well kept and enhance our park entrances. Keep them planted, weeded, and trash-free for the full one year assignment.

  2. Hoses can be found with the water supply at the end of each garden section; gardeners must provide their own tools.

  3. Keep plants trimmed and within your plot—no spillover into neighboring gardens.

  4. Organic gardening methods are preferred—no chemical weed killers or insecticides. Organic fertilizers, such as those made by Espoma, are encouraged.

  5. Place fall cleanup debris in paper bags beside park trash cans.

  6. Consult the Coordinator before adding fences or structures. Harvest regularly and never pick from another plot.

  7. Pets are not allowed in the gardens.
