Community Gardens at Sandyvale –
In response to the increasing interest in raising locally grown food and gardening, Sandyvale Memorial Gardens and Conservancy has established 16 raised gardening beds to assist neighborhood communities wishing to start community food gardens.
Sandyvale Memorial Gardens and Conservancy as host of the largest community garden in Johnstown, is currently seeking organized community groups that are looking to start sustainable and productive community food gardens in Johnstown.
Vegetable plants are provided by the Sandyvale greenhouse. They are plants that grow well in our area and are culturally and ethnically significant to the culinary and cuisine of residents in the Johnstown demographic region.
To adopt a garden at Sandyvale you should have:
1) At least 2-6 organized and motivated gardeners in your garden group or
2) A partnering non-profit or other organized group
