2 Dear Community & Giving Gardener, Welcome! Your commitment to the Bloomingdale Park District s Community & Giving Garden is important not only to your health, but to our community s health, as well. As an ORGANIC garden, the absence of harmful synthetic gardening chemicals will enhance our soil, air, and water quality and that benefits everyone in the community. As a Community & Giving Gardener, we encourage you to donate a portion of your produce to area food pantries whenever possible. A Donation Station will be located near the Park District Maintenance Building. Volunteers from the Bloomingdale Garden Club, Roselle Park District Garden Club, and University of Illinois Extension DuPage Master Gardeners will collect and transport fresh produce each week to area food pantries. Gardening with others can be both rewarding and challenging. Our hope is that this guide will help you reap the rewards of community gardening and manage the challenges that may come your way. May 2016 bring you a bountiful harvest of food, friendships, and the satisfaction that you are assisting others in need! Mission Statement The mission of the Bloomingdale Park District Community & Giving Garden is to enhance the quality of life of Bloomingdale area residents by creating and sustaining garden plots that foster horticulture education, environmental stewardship, recreation, and contribute excess produce for local food pantries. 2

The Park District also will provide a water source, landscape waste bins, trash bins, toilets, and Village supplied mulch. Gardener support is needed to maintain the site, manage compost, and help keep pathways clear of debris and weeds in order for this Community & Giving Garden to succeed. Resources to Support Your Gardening Endeavors Demonstration Gardens tended by the Bloomingdale Garden Club, the Roselle Park District Garden Club, and the University of Illinois Extension DuPage Master Gardeners will offer sample garden designs where ALL produce will be donated to area food pantries.

If they are unavailable when you are in the garden, feel free to contact them at: bloomingdalegardenclub@gmail.com rosellegardenclub@gmail.com University of Illinois Extension DuPage Master Gardeners at: uiemg dupage@illinois.edu or In the future, gardening classes and workshops may be provided to Community Gardeners and members of the community. 3
4 Parking Parking is conveniently located steps away from the Garden Plots in off street parking lots at the north end of Springfield Park. Street parking and parking in any grassy area are not permitted. Guidelines The following guidelines have been established by the Bloomingdale Park District. All Community & Giving Gardeners also assume specific responsibilities for their plots. Please read the guidelines carefully and direct any questions to or Garden Plot renters MUST agree to the following guidelines: 1. All gardeners are required to complete an application form available January 1 to April 1 of each year. The application fee is due at registration. Plots will be assigned through a lottery process. Only one plot per household will be assigned. Additional plots may become available and assigned at the discretion of the Park District. 2. The produce planted and harvested is for the enjoyment of the renter. However, as a Community & Giving Gardener, you are encouraged to periodically donate a portion of your produce to area food pantries whenever possible. A Donation Station will be located near the Park District Maintenance Building. Volunteers from the Bloomingdale and Roselle Garden Clubs and University of Illinois Extension DuPage Master Gardeners will collect and transport produce each week to area food pantries. 3. All plots must be planted by June 1, weather permitting. The Park District may reassign unplanted plots, without refund, after this date. If you have an unusual circumstance that prevents you from planting your garden plot on time, please contact the Park District. 4. Before planting, check the numbered stake to be certain you are in the correct plot. If you are unsure of your plot number, contact or parks@bloomingdaleparks.org Monday through Fridays. 5. All Community & Giving Gardeners are responsible for providing their own tools and accessories. The Park District is not responsible for lost equipment. 6. All Community & Giving Gardeners are responsible to keep pathways around their plot clear and weed free. 7. Weed Policy and Consequences Participating in a Community & Giving Garden affords you an opportunity and a responsibility to your fellow gardeners. In order to ensure good gardening practices, plots must be reasonably maintained. Reasonably maintained means weeds under control (less than 6 tall) and plants regularly cared for, watered, and harvested. Plants may not exceed plot boundaries. The Park District has the right to mow the entire plot if the plot is not maintained after a warning is issued. Gardeners will have one week to weed/correct deficiencies before the plot is mowed. Weeds compete with other plants in your garden and can quickly become invasive. If weeds are left to go to seed they will affect your neighbor s garden, as well. Gardeners are responsible for keeping their plot weed free. 4
5 8. Plant tall plants and vines within the boundaries of your plot where they will not interfere with your neighbor s plot or shade their plants. Structures for vines must comply with Village of Bloomingdale ordinances. 9. Pick up and dispose of litter in the appropriate receptacles. 10. Put weeds and dead plants from your garden plot into the landscape waste bins provided. Do NOT put diseased plant material into the landscape waste bins. Use the trash bins for diseased plant material. No waste material should be brought in from outside sources. Do not leave weeds or other debris in the pathways. 11. Each renter is responsible for only their own plot and surrounding pathways. Do not apply anything to, or pick from another person s plot without his/her express permission. 12. Unattended watering is not permitted. Make sure all faucets are turned off and hoses are disconnected when leaving the garden. 13. Water provided is non potable (NON DRINKABLE). Be sure to bring your own fresh water if you need a cool drink while working in the Community & Giving Garden. 14. If you will be absent from the garden five (5) or more days, please contact the Park District with the name/phone number of a friend/family member who will be responsible to tend your garden plot in your absence. 15. The following are NOT permitted: planting of illegal plants; smoking and chewing tobacco (tobacco can transmit a virus to plants and cigarette butts are loaded with toxins); pets, drugs; alcohol; radios; boom boxes, and fires. Certified service animals are allowed. Please note on your registration form. 16. Children are welcome at the garden when accompanied and fully supervised by an adult at all times. 17. For your safety, only garden during daylight hours. 18. Report theft, vandalism, and/or unusual activities to the Bloomingdale Park District ( ).
