Community Gardens

Join the Sandown Community Gardens!

Sandown has built a lively community space where folks can get their hands in the dirt, grow delicious, nutrient-dense food, meet their neighbours, and contribute to the restoration and stewardship of the land.​

​​

The community garden is 3/4 of an acre of in-ground and raised beds, with wood chip pathways and a central gathering area. Garden beds are 3’x10’ in-ground or 4’x10’ raised, and includes supplementary automated irrigation and some shared tools. 

 

The annual cost is $150 +GST for a raised bed and $100 +GST for an in-ground bed 

 

No synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, or pressure treated wood is allowed, and garden beds must be kept weeded and mulched.​

Members can access their garden at any time, and are asked to please be respectful of the working farm, and to keep the gate closed and the deer out!

 

We look forward to you joining the community!

​© 2025 Sandown Centre for Regenerative Agriculture

The Sandown Centre for Regenerative Agriculture is located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded lands of the SENĆOŦEN-speaking W̱S͸ḴEM (Tseycum) peoples of the W̱SÁNEĆ Nation. We acknowledge their deep, ongoing relationship with this land and waters, which has sustained their communities since time immemorial.

Regenerative agriculture is deeply informed by the wisdom and practices of Indigenous food systems, which have fostered ecological balance and abundance. Colonization violently disrupted these systems, displacing Indigenous peoples from their territories and severing traditional foodways. We recognize that agriculture has been both a tool of oppression and, today, a potential pathway toward justice and reconciliation.

At Sandown, we commit to meaningful action by restoring ecosystems, honoring Indigenous knowledge, supporting food sovereignty, and fostering relationships built on respect, reciprocity, and learning. True regenerative agriculture must include the regeneration of right relationships—with the land, its original stewards, and one another.
