The City of Owen Sound is looking for input on its Community Garden Policy update.
The city says the policy was adopted in 2011, which guides the placement and operation of community garden on municipally-owned lands.
Developed with community consultations, it identified a number of approved community garden locations in city parks, including at St. George’s Park and along the East Harbourfront.
An update to the policy seeks to establish new and existing locations where community gardens would be permitted without further consultation, with the intention of streamlining future application requirements.
Those interested in taking part can fill out the online survey here before the Jan. 27 deadline.
