Tumwater UMC Garden Plots

Do you love gardening? Our friends over at Tumwater UMC are setting up their garden again this year and offering to let folks at our church adopt a small portion!

The Tumwater Community Garden is a garden located on the grounds of Tumwater United Methodist Church. There are 16 raised beds with a drip irrigation system. Two of the raised beds are wheelchair accessible. The raised beds are available for adoption on a first come, first served basis by any community member, family, organization, school group, etc. regardless of background, income, or religious affiliation. 

There is a $20 refundable deposit for adoption of a raised bed. The deposit will be refunded in the fall after the gardener meets the requirements of volunteer participation outlined in the garden guidelines. The deposit will NOT be refunded if the volunteer requirement is not met. Persons who adopt a raised bed are also required to sign an agreement on garden practices including the conservation of water, respect for tools and property, and no use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. If you wish to do additional volunteer work and/or contribute financially to the garden project, please contact the Garden Coordinators. Email tumwatergarden@gmail.com with any questions or concerns.
