HOW TO JOIN
Any resident of Boston can have a plot in the Fenway Victory Gardens, subject to availability and willingness to adhere to the Fenway Garden Society Guidelines and Regulations. The annual fee is $30 for a single plot and/or $15 for seniors (55 and over), only one plot is available to new gardeners.

Keep in mind that caring for a plot is a responsibility. Approximately six hours a week of active care taking is necessary to maintain a single plot. Routine garden-tending includes:

Gardeners Allison Evans and Michael Dignazio

• soil preparation
• planting, cultivation
• fertilizing
• watering
• plant staking
• pruning
• deadheading or harvesting
• weeding
• public path maintenance
• fence or garden structure repairs
• removal of plant material to the
  compost
• pick-up and removal of trash and
  debris.

Exhausted by just the thought of all that? Remember, garden admirers are important, too! So if you think you’ll feel more comfortable strolling through the gardens from time to time, you are most welcome to do so.

If you are still intent on joining, we recommend that you also check out the Fenway Garden Society Guidelines and Regulations to ensure that you are aware of all the rules before you are assigned a plot.
