Rent a municipal garden plot

You can rent a garden plot at one of the municipality's educational gardening complexes from 15 March to 15 November. There are no more plots available for 2022.

You can plant your own vegetables, fruit and flowers in a communal garden.

Gardening takes time

All of the plots are 15 square metres and require about 4 hours of work a week. This includes weeding, setting out netting, tying up plants, watering and harvesting. You are obliged to keep the garden tidy.
