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!
