Bordentown Township invites residents to participate in its Community Garden, located on West Constitution Drive. The garden offers organic plots for rent at $25 each, providing space to grow your own fruits, vegetables, and flowers. All gardeners must follow organic farming practices, and plots are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.
Each household can lease one plot to start, and if there are any left after April 15th, households will have the opportunity to lease a second plot (limit two per household). To reserve yours, simply pay the Township Clerk by cash or check—there are no holds without payment.
The garden also supports local food pantries. In unrented plots, volunteers grow and harvest organic crops for donation—up to half a ton of produce has been donated in recent years! We’re always looking for volunteers to help maintain the garden and assist with donations. For more information or to get involved, email environmentalcommission@bordentowntownship.org.
If you're new to gardening or want to learn, the Environmental Commission (EC) is here to help! Whether you're just getting started or looking for tips, they're a great resource and help foster a welcoming gardening community.
The garden is a great way to enjoy fresh air, meet neighbors, and grow healthy food for your family. Weather permitting, we hope to open the garden May!
A map of the garden’s location is included below to help you easily find your way.
