SARATOGA SPRINGS— Spring is coming and registration has begun for plots at Pitney Meadows Community Gardens on West Avenue.

Gardeners are invited to apply for beds in 3 different sizes: 4- by 8-foot raised beds, some designed for those with limited mobility; in-ground plots measuring 8 by 11 feet; and in-ground plots measuring 11 by 19 feet.

Gardeners in good standing are permitted to keep their beds from year to year. That leaves available a dozen smaller raised beds and a number of 11 by 19 plots, which can be reconfigured as smaller plots depending on gardener demand. 

Plot prices range from $35 to $500. Payments over $50 are tax-deductible. Payment must accompany each application, and the application deadline is March 5. Gardeners will be chosen by lottery on March 9 and will be notified by email.

Plot applications can be found on the Pitney Meadows Community Farm website: https://www.pitneymeadowscommunityfarm.org/communitygardens/

A garden meeting will be held Monday, March 12 at 7 p.m. at the Spring Street Gallery, 110 Spring Street

Paper copies of the application can be picked up at the wooden rack inside the vestibule at 110 Spring Street.
