Request for Approval
If you plan to have any objects (raised beds, trellis, compost bin, side tables, chairs, etc.) on your plot please submit a request for Approval to the Garden Committee. Please make sure to include what material you will be using and any dimensions you can supply. All structures must be approved even if you use recommended materials. Please take into consideration that it can take some time for the committee to vote.
