The Ellen Wehrman Memorial Community Garden is sowed with love each year in honor of the late Ellen Wehrman and her love for the simple pleasures found in nurturing one’s own garden. Given the limited yard space many Bordentown row homes are famous for, the community garden affords residents the opportunity to grow their own fruits, vegetables, and herbs on 6 x 11 foot plots, alongside their friends and neighbors. The fee for the 2024 season is $30 per plot.

**Applications for the 2024 Community Garden season are now being accepted and can be viewed or printed here.

Applications and payment from returning plot holders must be received by February 28 of each year. Remaining plots will then be available to new plot holders.
