Fees are necessary to cover the cost of water, resources and management. It also increases gardener responsibility and investment in the garden and the program. Financial assistance available. No refunds on plot fee or deposit after June 1st. There may be a small administrative fee deducted from any refunds requested before June 1st to cover the cost of setting up your garden space.

Returning gardeners

We will keep your 2010 Clean-up Deposit for 2011, so you don't need to pay it again, if you clean up your plot by November 1st. If your plot is not cleaned by the November 1st deadline, you will be required to send an additional $25.00 along with this application before you may garden again in 2011. Community CROPS accepts cash, check, and Paypal transfers. Please remember: your 2011 application is not complete until you have paid your $25.00 clean-up deposit and garden plot fee.

Note: Completing your application now will allow you to keep the same plot for next year. If you do not know if you want to return, you can wait until next year and apply in February, but we can not guarantee you the same plot.
