General Garden
Rules The following rules and guidelines are
listed to help us protect the garden and to enjoy it in a
quiet, considerate manner. Everyone’s cooperation is
expected in order to have access to the garden. Garden
rules are strictly enforced by all gardeners and the
steering committee. Failure to abide by any rule may result
in the loss of garden access and privileges. All keyholders
and plot gardeners have a responsibility to abide by these

be used by gardeners caring for their assigned
areas.
Only individual rear plot
gardeners and their guests are allowed into the rear
garden.
Herbs may be harvested
sparingly and carefully from the community herb
