Let us show you how to grow in your garden and within the community as well.

We have created this site as a means of strengthening our own gardening community and celebrating the pleasure we all take in the gardening experience. We strive to reach out to the community and to show how everyone can benefit from a thriving community garden. We have accomplished this by working with local food banks and setting aside gardens specifically for the purpose of donations.   We have successfully raised three hundred pounds of donations in the previous growing season and look forward to increase these donations in the upcoming years.

We are located in beautiful Rose Tree Park on Route 252 and Rose Tree Road in Media, Pennsylvania. There are more than one hundred and thirty individual 20' x 24' gardening plots that may be rented for the April - November growing season for a nominal fee of $30. Returning gardeners get first dibs on the same plot each year. New gardeners can inquire about space availability at the number listed below. If all plots are taken, new gardeners can request to be placed on a waiting list. For more information on Rose Tree Community Gardens, please contact the Delaware County Department of Parks and Recreation: 610-891-4663.
