City of Guelph’s Community Gardens Program

Do you love gardening? Are you looking for a way to get outdoors, connect with nature and

make new friends? Are you interested in growing your own fresh organic vegetables but

don’t have the space on your own property?

There is a network of over 20 community gardens in Guelph where you can volunteer to

grow food for charity, register for a plot to grow your own fresh food or do both. You can get

involved by:

• Joining an existing garden
• Starting a new community garden in your neighbourhood
• Making a donation to a garden
