Community Garden
Grow something special in our Community Garden!
The Paradise Community Garden is located on Lanark Drive (next to the playground) and has 20 raised beds (4’ X 8’) and 4 accessible beds (3’ X 5’). The area is equipped with waste bins, a composter, and seating within the area. Garden beds are filled with triple mix soil and fertilizer, and once assigned, it is the responsibility of the resident to maintain them. Beds will be assigned to residents upon registration. Participants will have the opportunity to grow fruits and vegetables in their own personal garden bed.
Registration opens May 4 at 12:00 p.m., online only, and is on a first-come, first-served basis. Raised beds are $20 a plot for the entire growing season. If you do not have access to a computer and require assistance with registering for a garden bed, please call 709.782.6290 when registration opens and /or visit the Paradise Double Ice Complex, where staff can assist you. Please note that it will remain on a first-come, first-served basis. A raised garden bed is assigned once registration is completed and reviewed.
The Community Garden opens on May 11 and closes on September 20. Successful applicants must have plants in the garden no later than June 1. Gardeners must provide their own gardening tools. Successful participants will receive an email on May 4, 2026.
It is recommended to tend to the garden beds three times a week. However, depending on the weather, it may require extra attention. Gardeners are only responsible for their assigned bed within the community garden.
The Town extends thanks to the Carpenters Mill Wright College for the construction of garden beds and to the Government of Canada for providing funding through the New Horizons Program.
