We offer 25 plots for rent by individuals, families and groups to organically grow food and flowers for their own use. Residents of Harpswell are given priority but plots may be rented to non-residents, depending on availability. The garden has a solar-powered well, water spigots placed throughout the plot area, a storage shed with communal tools, on-site composting, and reinforced fencing to reduce the entry of foraging animals. Gardeners may keep the same plot from year to year, and high quality compost is usually available for top dressing. Families are welcomed; picnic tables, a play area with climbing frame and sandbox will keep younger or non-gardening kids busy. There are also communal herb beds, asparagus mounds, and selected other perennial vegetables for our gardeners to share in.
