The Harpswell Community Garden, at George J. Mitchell Field, has plots available for rent for the 2023 season.

The organic garden offers an opportunity for local gardeners who lack space or sunlight, as well as those who want to join a community of gardeners.

There are water spigots throughout the garden, which also boasts a solar-powered well, a storage shed with communal tools, and on-site composting. Individuals and groups are welcome to rent plots to grow their own produce and flowers.

Plots are also available for groups to grow produce for fundraising or donation to community programs. Rental fees are waived for those growing food for donation, and for others on a needs basis.
