Community Gardens

Community garden plots

The City of Lenexa offers community gardens at three locations for residents:

  • Sar-Ko-Par Trails Park
  • Electric Park
  • Scouting Park

Our community gardens stimulate social interaction, produce nutritious food, conserve resources and create opportunities for recreation, exercise and education. Gardeners grow vegetables, flowers and herbs for their own use and to help the community. The gardens also provide demonstrations to observe different techniques for growing the same produce at home.

We have a waiting list to participate in our community gardens.

Join the waitlist

Once you are notified that a plot is available, you will be asked to sign the Community Garden Agreement(PDF, 188KB) and complete an application.

The gardening season is from mid-March to mid-October. During that time, you are responsible for planting and keeping your plot weeded, watered and harvested.
