For everyone who has rented a garden bed for 2026, we have great news! All garden beds plus all of the community garden areas are now irrigated with drip irrigation thanks to a grant from Food Well Alliance. Your veggies will be automatically watered for one hour every other day. You also have the option to water manually in addition, or to shut off the automatic irrigation. This will help you achieve a wonderful harvest. See the instruction video here.

Excerpt from the American Community Garden Association newsletter.

April - a season of renewal, growth, and possibility. Just as the earth begins to wake up, so do our gardens, our communities, and our sense of purpose ... life, like gardening, is about cycles. We plant seeds with intention, nurture them with care, and trust the process even when we can’t yet see the results...It’s not just about growing food, it's about cultivating relationships, sharing knowledge, and creating spaces where everyone can thrive.

Community gardens are powerful because they bring people together. They turn vacant spaces into places of beauty and nourishment. They remind us that when we work collectively, we can produce something far greater than what we could do alone. Each seed planted is an act of hope, and each harvest is a reminder of what’s possible when a community comes together.
