Community gardening in the demonstration farm at the Food Commons.
Community Gardens
There are 16 large beds open for community rental at the Food Commons. Although our garden beds are currently full for the 2026 growing season, you can still sign up to participate next year. This is a great place for beginner gardeners and lifers, with opportunities for knowledge sharing built into the Community Garden program.
Food Commons Demonstration Farm
Small scale, ecologically minded agriculture built by you.
The Food Commons demonstration farm is a living, working space where food and knowledge grow side by side. Rooted in Indigenous foodways and a deep respect for the land, the farm is tended by our coordinator and a community of volunteers who come together to grow, harvest, and learn throughout the season. It is a place where traditional practices and community care meet, and where everyone is welcome to get their hands in the soil.
Want to get involved?
Whether you're an experienced grower or just curious about where your food comes from, there are ways to be part of the demonstration farm. Join us for Early Birds, our drop-in volunteer sessions where you'll work alongside the coordinator and fellow community members, and take home a share of the day's harvest. No experience necessary. Our garden is closed for the season, but we look forward to growing with you this spring!
Sign up once - no commitment necessary!
Teachers and educators: check out how to get involved on our Food Commons Home Page!
