What we are
By The Plot is a non-profit organization Community Gardens, Shop and Education Center.
Plots are leased on a seasonal 3-month rotation on a income-based sliding scale.
This is to ensure that homeless and low-income families have the opportunity to grow
their own food. For a family on foodstamps this can dramatically stretch those valuable
food dollars as a well tended plot, or two, can keep a family in fruit and vegetables
year-round. A certain number of plots are reserved exclusively for this population.
All other members plots are available on a First Come, First Served basis.
