Registration 2020
We are excited that the Community Gardens are proceeding for Aspen and Pine Crescent Gardens. However, this year, registration will look a little different.
Due to COVID-19 and the regulations put forth by the government, we are asking that any interested parties fill out the online registration form (available May 1, 2020).
Once the form is completed and the desired plots have been selected, you will be contacted at the phone number provided in order to complete your purchase.
To encourage a fair and equal chance for all members to get a plot, registrants will be contacted on a first come, first serve basis (applications are time-stamped).
Please note: it is not until the plot has been fully paid that we will mark the plot as sold.
You have 24 hours from the time the registration form is submitted to make payment. You may call in your credit card information from Mon - Fri 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., or drop off your payment in the drop box located at the Town Office. If we do not receive payment in that time frame, the plot will be released and will be marked available for purchase. Registration for the plots starts on May 1, 2020 at 8:30 a.m. A max. of 2 plots are permitted per registrant.
As this is a new process for all involved, we respectfully ask for your patience as we navigate through these unprecedented times.
