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 digs over, 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

Organically home‑grown food for your household
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. This is your garden plot, grown by you for you and your family.
Grow an Extra Row
The large plots are big enough to experiment. Why not plant an extra row and grow something you've not tried before? Visit our Plant Sale and Seed Swap for insiration!
How it works.
Apply online
Plots open for applications each spring. When the season begins, you’ll be able to apply here. 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.
