Site Management -

All plants must grow within the confines of the allocated plot including shoots, roots and leaves.

Only organic fertilizers are permitted.

Diseased plants are to be disposed of in the garbage bin rather than the compost to reduce the transmission of diseases through compost soil.

All garden tools, hoses, and equipment must be removed from the site on a daily basis. There are no provisions for storage of gardening and supplies on the site.

No motorized garden tools (eg. leaf blowers, roto-tillers, hedge clippers).

No barriers to general public access can be erected on the site.

Respect all other plot holders and do not trespass upon other garden plots.

The community garden site shall be vacated between sunset and sunrise.

All garbage shall be put in bins daily and all green waste shall be composted.

Structures in the Garden

Structures are to be kept to a minimum. Bamboo stakes under 4 feet above the ground and green coated tomato cages will be allowed. Permanent structures in the community garden cannot be moved or altered.
