About Us
What is a Community Garden?
A community garden is a plot of land that is gardened collectively by a group of people. Each gardener leases a plot on the land and tends to it. What they bring in and grow is theirs to enjoy, consume or share with others. Many gardeners grow vegetables, some flowers, and some gardeners will plant both.
The Hopatcong Community Garden sits just off of Bell Avenue. It consists of 47 plots in that residents can lease for the year. You can find the Rules and Regulations along with the By Laws on our website.
Please direct all inquiries to the Hopatcong Community Garden Board via e-mail or call us at (862) 243-2201.
We respond to emails much quicker than phone messages.
Our mailing address is Hopatcong Community Garden, PO Box 372, Hopatcong, NJ 07843.
