A community garden means many things to many people. For some, a community garden is a place to grow food, flowers and herbs in the company of friends and neighbors. For others, it’s a place to reconnect with nature or get physical exercise. Yet others use community gardens simply because they lack adequate space to have a garden at their home.
This website contains important information about how our garden operates and who to contact with general and specific questions. It also contains information about how you can pitch in to make the garden run smoothly. Community gardening requires a fair amount of work beyond tending your own plot, every gardener is asked to participate to the best of his or her ability in the management and upkeep of the entire garden.
The Oak Hill Community Garden represents the next step in our vision to build a healthy community. Together we can create an agriculture and education project that empowers youth and adults to discover and participate in our local food system and encourage healthy living, nurture the environment and grow a more sustainable community.
A Few Tips For Successful Community Gardening
Plan to visit your garden two to three times a week during the growing season. Make a schedule with yourself or other gardeners, write it in your calendar, or post a colorful reminder on the fridge. Since your garden plot is not located outside your front or back door, it’s sometimes easy to forget that there is weeding, watering, staking or harvesting to do.
Attend scheduled meetings and workdays. This will help you meet other gardeners and become part of your gardening community. You’ll also learn about the various jobs and projects that need to be done to keep your garden in shape.
Make friends with other gardeners. Experienced gardeners are an invaluable resource. Pick their brains for gardening tips. Visit their plots to see how they stake or trellis their crops.
Volunteer for a garden job or committee. Community gardens don’t manage themselves. They require a fair amount of work. By pitching in on a certain job or project, you’ll be supporting the garden as a whole and ensuring that the work is spread among many people.
Educate yourself. Check out books from the library. Attend classes. There’s always something to learn about gardening. The more you learn, the more success you’ll have.
Harvest produce on a regular basis. Some people use the excuse that “a lot of food is going to waste” to justify taking food from a garden without permission.
During harvest season, let garden leaders know if you plan to be out of town for more than a few days. Gardeners can harvest for you and donate the food to a local pantry.
