Garden Plot Registration for the 2025 season is open! Existing gardeners will be given the opportunity to keep or change their plot for the 2025 season. All other plots are first come first served. To register, go to northhavenyyc.ca and click on Extras at the top. Select community garden from the drop-down menu.

The Community Garden is a resident driven initiative with over 20 participants working to bring this project to life. The Community Garden successfully completed its first year of planting and harvest in 2023, opened our second phase of the garden in 2024, and we are looking forward to another successful year of growing. The NHCA is thrilled to support this endeavour and support healthy lifestyles in our community.

Because this is a resident driven initiative, we ask that gardeners sign up for a volunteer role to help support the garden during the 2025 season. There are a variety of volunteer roles. We are listening to gardeners and taking recommendations and learnings from the first two years into consideration with the 2025 planning. These roles include filling the water barrels, orchard support, and general maintenance. We are also seeking someone to help support with email communications over the season.

We will need dedicated volunteers to help support our community plots – plots to grow produce to help support community members who are experiencing food insecurity. More details to follow on this new neighbourly initiative.

Plot holders must have an active North Haven Community Association Membership. Memberships can be purchased ahead of registration at https://northhavenyyc.ca/membership.
