COVID protocols and guidelines from our public health and government authorities are followed.  

Community Gardens are Essential Service. They are not functioning as social gatherings, but provide food for our community. 

Until further notice:

• We cannot hold Work Parties, host Workshops, Lunch Events or Gatherings. Ensure physical distancing. 

In response to COVID, we are supporting our community to grow food.  The Riley Park Garden Guide is an online resource and community resource to provide one-on-one mentorships with expert/Master Gardeners, helping you with a site assessment to determine soil quality, suggesting soil amendments and crops; and providing you with some seeds to get your garden going or producing short Gardening Tips videos. 

In the Riley Park Community Garden (RPCG), please follow these guidelines:

• Our maximum number of gardeners is 4 people. Sign Up for our Small Team Gardening sessions led by a volunteer. Everyone welcome.

• The garden is closed to the public when gardeners are at work & Riley Park Summer Farmers Market (Saturdays until 3:00pm). 

• No dogs in garden. 

• Bring own tools, no shared snacks or lunches. When shared tools must be used, these must be sanitized with a 5% bleach solution.

• Any surface that is touched should be sanitized with bleach solution. These include: wheelbarrow and sprinkling can handles, compost bins, any part of watering system valves and nozzles.
