South Village Community Garden Program
The garden beds, which are located to the east of the farm stand at the farm, are available to community members on a first come, first serve basis during the solicitation period early every spring. The 2024 deadline has passed but please let us know if you are interested in a bed for 2025 as it helps us plan adding additional beds.
Garden bed maintenance is an important aspect of any community garden. Below are examples of how community garden plots should be left at the end of the growing season along with an example of a bed that still needs addressing before winter.
An integral part of the South Village Community Stewardship Fund mission is fulfilled by community programs offerings. Currently this includes the community garden program. In the past it has included the chicken coop program. Also there are coordinated community events such as volunteer events.
Community involvement is at the essence of a vibrant community. As such, we share with you community stories such as “Going Native to Bring in the Pollinators and Birds” for your education and information. Thanks so much to Lucie Lehmann for sharing her knowledge and ideas with us.
