Community Garden Guidelines (For a printable version, Click Here )
Plot registration begins March 1 with preference given to gardeners who gardened last year. There's a limit of two plots per gardener until May 1; at that time any remaining plots will be assigned. Unclaimed plots will be reassigned after June 1.
Plot corners are clearly marked with stakes. Please do not remove these stakes during the season.
Keep rocks out of pathways/borders. They make mowing impossible. Put them in the designated areas.
Be considerate of your neighbors. All gardeners must keep plants, compost piles, etc., in their own plots. Do not plant sprawling crops or tall ones that might interfere with others. Harvest only from your assigned plot. Please supervise young children so they don't disturb other plots.
All plots will be inspected at least three times per season. Gardeners that have not planted by May 31st and/or have an unkempt garden will be notified. Failure to respond within 14 days will result in forfeiture of the plot(s).
Do not spray on windy days. Keep insects and weeds under control. ONLY organic pesticides and herbicides may be used. Black plastic mulches are prohibited.
All paths and plots must be kept free of trash, grass, etc., by the plot holders. No debris of any kind should be left at the site. Use trash receptacles available next to the gardens.
Notify garden coordinator if you are no longer able to tend your plot or will be absent for a long period of time.
Crops must be harvested once they are mature. If you are unable to use all of them, there are many food banks that could use extra vegetables. Please contact the garden coordinator for more information.
If you have any questions, suggestions, or complaints, please contact the garden coordinator.
I understand all of these rules and regulations and promise to follow them.
Furthermore, I understand that neither Sugarcreek Township nor my fellow gardeners is responsible for my actions. I THEREFORE AGREE TO HOLD HARMLESS SUGARCREEK TOWNSHIP AND MY FELLOW GARDENERS FOR ANY LIABILITY, DAMAGE, LOSS OR CLAIM THAT OCCURS IN CONNECTION WITH USE OF THE GARDEN BY ME OR ANY OF MY GUESTS.
Your compliance with the above regulations will help everyone have an enjoyable and prosperous garden. Failure to comply with above regulations during the season may result in a loss of future gardening privileges.
