Community Garden

2010 Policies

The Garden is completely full for 2010.  Gardening Matters can help you locate alternate possibilities.  Good luck!

St. Anthony Park Community garden was established in 1981 by gardening enthusiasts on land leased from the Burlington Northern Railroad. Over the years, the garden grew to 96 plots. In 1998 the land was purchased from the Railroad by the St. Anthony Park Community Council with funds raised by gardeners, local businesses and government grants.

More than 96 vegetable and flower plots are rented on an annual basis. The garden is managed by volunteers. Gardeners pay an annual fee which includes access to a watering system. Plots are assigned on a first come first serve basis early in the year. Gardeners who have had a plot in previous years are given preference.

Saint Anthony Park Community Garden has a draft Governance statement available for review. You can also see the policies.

2009 Garden Plots

The community garden is completely full for 2009.  If you are interested in a 2010 plot, applications will be available on this website and at the co-op on March 1st of 2010.  Only those who returned their applications by March 4th got in this year, so if you want a plot, you'll have to be timely!
