Unity Park Community Garden is now accepting applications for the Spring 2011 Gardening Season!
Our Spring Season runs from February 1st - July 31st.
If you've driven by Unity Park CG lately you will see that we've been working hard to get the infrastructure in place. We now have a water tank in the garden and spigots on each side of the garden, a shed filled with our tools, and a couple of picnic tables to sit under the canopy.
If you are interested in gardening with us, please read "Is Community Gardening for You?"
The Unity Park Community Garden Gardeners Handbook & Application Packet is posted here.
Once you have your paperwork ready, please email the Garden Manager, Lori Ferris, who will make arrangements to meet you at the garden to assign you a plot. Then you are free to begin gardening!
Plots will be assigned first-come first-served.
If you know someone who would like to rent a plot, but does not have Internet access, please have them call us at 512-627-7929 and we will mail them an application packet.
We limit garden plots to one per household, at least for their first season.
In addition to the plot rental fee, there will be a one-time Membership fee of $20.
All Gardeners will be required to contribute 6 Service Hours each six month season to help maintain Unity Park Community Garden. The care and maintenance of the garden is the collective responsibility of the community gardeners.
Volunteer hours are submitted here.
