Other improvements included the extension of the
<br />fence and installation of a gate lock (see second photo)
<br />to reduce theft. The new garden will have a taller, more
<br />secure fence (more on this below).
<br />The Board submitted a proposal for 2019 funding
<br />of a Community Garden Reconstruction Plan to the
<br />Town of Mashpee's Community Preservation
<br />Committee in the fall of 2018. Upon review, the
<br />Committee approved the project for inclusion in the
<br />May 2019 Town Warrant that was considered and
<br />passed at the May 2019 Town Meeting. We have begun
<br />the planned new garden construction in the fall of 2019.
<br />This will include 20 new, 8 foot by 12 foot garden beds
<br />(50% bigger than the original garden beds) constructed
<br />of 2 inch by 12 inch lumber, with 5 foot tall garden
<br />fencing, and native display, fruit and herb gardens.
<br />We have included a third photo of the new garden
<br />site after demolition of the old garden in the winter. We
<br />are working closely with DPW, DPW Director,
<br />Catherine Laurent, and AmeriCorps on construction of
<br />the new garden —the garden plan is also included.
<br />Garden plot applications are being accepted now
<br />for the new Garden for the spring of 2020, with
<br />Mashpee residents being given first priority on a first
<br />come, first serve basis. The MCGAC voted to keep the
<br />garden bed lease fee at $20.00 per year. Anyone
<br />interested in helping with construction of the new
<br />garden should contact the MCGAC.
