Paul Memorial Library Community Garden 
In spirit with responsible land use and cultivation of a community effort to local
sustainability, the Paul Memorial Library offers up a portion of its generous
space to residents for the purpose of an organic gardening experience. This
opportunity comes on an annual basis and is available to citizens who have a committed
desire to grow their own vegetables, herbs or flowers.
The following guidelines have been set to encourage everyone’s success! The library
staff and trustees would like to thank participants for their continued dedication.
- Please plant your gardens before the end of May. We do have others interested in planting and if you are not going to plant please let others have a chance.
- Make sure you turn the water off after you use it. This is really important as
the water bill is our biggest expense and your plot cost goes to offset this. - When watering, please be careful not to drag the hose through other gardens and coil the hose back up when you are done using it.
- Do not step in other gardens or pick others veggies unless you ask them.
- Keep your area and the general area free of planting pots, bags, trays, stakes, and trash. There is a trash can you can use, or take used materials with you when you leave.
- Please keep your plants from growing into the paths. If they grow into the path they will be moved back into your plot.
- These are organic gardens. No pesticides or other non-organic fertilizers are allowed.
- At the end of the season you will be responsible for cleaning up your beds. More information on this procedure will follow.
- If you have any extra veggies and would like to donate them to the local food pantry please let me know.
If you have any questions, problems or concerns please contact me. Enjoy your garden!
