Your own plot on a certified organic farm. Beds prepared. No experience required.
Eight garden beds, two sizes, one growing season — April through October — on Crown Point's 115 certified organic acres. Crown Point tills, composts, and preps every bed before you arrive. You bring the seeds and the time; the farm does the heavy lifting.
What you're actually getting.
Prepared beds, ready to plant
Certified organic growing standards
Shared tools & water access
Direct farmer & staff support
Built-in food donation pathways
Choose your plot.
A manageable size for first-time gardeners, small households, or anyone easing into growing their own food.
Room to grow a full season's worth of vegetables for a family, or to experiment with more variety.
Your garden feeds more than just you.
Two ways a Crown Point garden plot can connect to the farm's broader food security mission.
What you grow is yours
Your personal harvest belongs to you and your household — no obligation attached. This is a garden plot, not a work-share.
Grow an Extra Row
Plant one extra row and donate it — a simple, optional way for any plot-holder to contribute directly to Crown Point's food access partnerships, with no added cost or plot space required.
How it works.
Apply online or by mail
Plots are assigned first-come, first-served. Once all eight are claimed, a waitlist opens.
Attend a seasonal orientation
Required for all participants — covers organic growing practices, garden expectations, tool and water access, and how to communicate with staff.
Sign your participant agreement
A short expectations agreement and standard farm paperwork, completed before the season starts.
Grow, April through October
Certified organic inputs only — no synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides. Crown Point's farmers can point you toward organic seed and supply sources.
Clear your bed by the end-of-season deadline
So it's ready for tilling and the next gardener come spring.
