Application Process

Returning Garden Plot Gardeners:

If you are a returning gardener from the 2023 season, please complete your application and payment by March 20, 2024.  

Waitlist for New Garden Plots:

  • You will be placed on a waitlist and notified when a garden plot becomes available.

  • At the end of March, we will begin emailing people who are on the waitlist.  

  • Typically, the process runs through mid-June.  

  • You will have five days to confirm your interest and make your payment before we move to the next person on the waitlist.

Payment:

  • Gardener confirmation occurs when payment is received and recorded or a waiver is approved.

Volunteers organize and run Taylor Street Farms. Your helping hands are very important!!
