Community Garden plots open for 2021 reservations

By Reader Staff

A limited number of 2021 Community Garden plots will open for online reservation at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 13. Intrepid North Idaho gardeners may begin gardening as early as they wish, once a plot has been reserved and paid for. For the fair-weather gardener, March and April are great months for soil prep. May is generally a safe bet to begin seeding or planting out tender varieties. 

A plot map, depicting available plots can be found on the Sandpoint Parks and Recreation online facilities catalog at secure.rec1.com/ID/city-of-sandpoint/catalog.  

For questions or additional information, call the Sandpoint Parks and Rec. office at 208-263-3613.

Plot fees are non-refundable: 4-foot by 8-foot plots are $25 each; 7-foot by 7-foot plots are $30 each.

The City of Sandpoint Community Garden is located within the Old Ninth Grade Center Park at Highway 2 and Boyer Avenue in Sandpoint.

While we have you ...

... if you appreciate that access to the news, opinion, humor, entertainment and cultural reporting in the Sandpoint Reader is freely available in our print newspaper as well as here on our website, we have a favor to ask. The Reader is locally owned and free of the large corporate, big-money influence that affects so much of the media today. We're supported entirely by our valued advertisers and readers. We're committed to continued free access to our paper and our website here with NO PAYWALL - period. But of course, it does cost money to produce the Reader. If you're a reader who appreciates the value of an independent, local news source, we hope you'll consider a voluntary contribution. You can help support the Reader for as little as $1.

You can contribute at either Paypal or Patreon.
