Community Garden Maintenance

What This Service Involves

We maintain pathways, common beds, fencing, and shared tools while supporting the water and irrigation systems that keep plots productive. Weeds and debris in common areas are managed so garden coordinators and volunteers can focus on their own plots. Compost bins, signage, and gathering spaces are serviced to keep the site organized and welcoming. We coordinate with garden managers and honor organic or chemical-free requirements where specified.
