TapRoot Garden Plots
If you do not have access to land to grow your own garden, please contact us for one or more of 20 garden plots available at our 1736 Church Street location. Our plots are 6 ft x 25 ft. We will be around to support you in growing your crops. This land is certified organic land, so all of the seeds, inputs and management strategies must be approved for organic production. We are happy to provide you with everything you will need to successfully grow your garden. Included in your plot: we will prepare the soil and we will apply the amendments (fertility). We will make available at cost: for mulching, transplants and seeds. In exchange for the use of the garden plot, we ask that you pay as you are able or share your harvest with the farm as you are able. Cost: $50 per plot per year.
Purchase a garden plot OR support someone with one.

Gleaning
Throughout the year if there are times when we have an abundance of 2nd vegetables or crops left in the field after harvest, we will post on our facebook page gleaning opportunities. This is an opportunity for those who can make it to the farm to come and harvest or collect as much as they need or want for their own use or wish to gather to donate.
