Gardening Organically
Summit Community Gardens is committed to organic gardening and requires the same from our gardeners. The use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides is STRICTLY PROHIBITED. A garden plot is a commitment of time and constant effort. Please plan to spend 2-3 hours a week throughout the season.
Reserving and Renewing Your Garden Plot
Assignment of garden plots will be on a first-come, first serve basis. The standard plot will be approximately 4’ by 16’.
The plot fee of $125 is due in full before November 30th to reserve your plot for the following season.
Community gardeners must volunteer a minimum of 8 hours each season. If you cannot make this commitment, you can purchase a “Volunteer Waiver.”
Gardeners who fulfill all of the necessary requirements, including plot maintenance, meeting attendance, volunteer hours, and behavior expectations, may renew their same plot for the following season.
Benefits and Rewards
Community gardening is popular and fun in Park City, and the extra responsibilities really just become a labor of love!

Weed and Maintenance Policy
Our goal is to create a space for you all to garden together. In an attempt to decrease the number of unmaintained garden plots, we have instituted a new policy. Please take time to read our new weed maintenance policy for 2024:
All plots must be ready for planting by June 10 - This includes activities such as weeding, tarping, planting, or any other activity
If there is no activity by Father’s Day (June 18), a warning will be sent out to unmaintained plots
If there is no activity by July 1st, the plot will be given to the waitlist unless other arrangements have been made.
