Looking for garden space this summer?

Still a couple of spaces left: West Chester Green Team is matching up residents who would like garden space with community garden plots that we have located for summer 2021: one at the Melton Center, one at Barclay Friends, and one in a private garden.

We are not offering our Roots N’ Shoots gardening program for kids this summer, but kids are welcome to join family members in the 2021 Community Gardening program.

To apply, please email here, or phone 610 692-3849 or write a letter to 409 W. Union St., West Chester PA 19382 with this information:

• Your name and names of others in the family who would be gardening

• Your address

• An idea what you’d like to grow

• Any prior gardening experience

• Please rank your preference of location in the Borough: Melton Center (East End), Barclay Friends (NE), or a personal garden (SW)

From this year’s predecessor program: gardening for children, in 2019-20
