Community Garden Open House

Salt Lake City Green, in partnership with Wasatch Community Gardens, will host a community garden open house this Wednesday.

Green City Growers Open House
Wednesday, November 13^th from 6-8 p.m.
First floor of the Salt Lake City & County Building (451 S. State Street)

The public is invited to come and learn about newly identified parcels of City-owned and operated land now available for the development of community gardens. Information about the Green City Growers application process and available resources will also be provided.

In an ordinance amendment that was unanimously passed by the Salt Lake City Council last month, eight designated parcels were identified for community garden access. Residents are encouraged to review the available parcels on SLCgreen.com and, if interested, to complete an application for the organization and creation of a community garden.

Applications are due to Salt Lake City as of December 15, 2013.

Salt Lake City works directly with Wasatch Community Gardens and community members to develop gardens within City limits through the SLCgreen City Growers Program. Wasatch Community Gardens is a community-based nonprofit that has served the Salt Lake County community for over 25 years.
