Parks and Community Services Department. Located on Fifth Street between L Street and Pole Line
Road, it consists of 107 18' by 20' plots which are rented to gardeners on a yearly basis, starting in
February.
The annual registration fee is $47, and a refundable cleaning deposit of $25 is required.
Although not strictly organic, the use of pesticides is discouraged,
and herbicides are not permitted. Water, hoses, wheelbarrows and some toolsare provided.
The "garden center" includes a tool shed, picnic table,
community herb and flower plots, and a kid's fun plot. Work parties are held monthly during good weather;
all garden tenants are expected to
help out with maintaining the common areas.
