The Rules and Agreements ensure that the community gardens are maintained as vibrant, shared green spaces within the City of Burnaby. Urban Bounty and community gardeners are required to agree to and honour these Rules and Agreements in exchange for the privilege of gardening on public land. Please review the Rules and Agreements if you are a new or current community gardener.

Membership PAYMENT

If you are a new or returning gardener looking to pay for your Community Garden Membership Fees then you have come to the right place.

A couple things to note before your pay:

  • Payment deadline for all gardeners is January 31st, unless otherwise stated by an Urban Bounty staff member. 
  • Gardeners are responsible for renewing their membership fee each year in January unless they have given written notice of vacating the plot to Urban Bounty staff.
  • Only gardeners who have passed the reviews are allowed to renew (not applicable for new gardeners)
  • You must read and agree to the Rules and Agreements above before paying for your membership fees. 
  • We do not provide refunds for membership fees, so please ensure that this program is right for you before making your payment. 

Membership FEES

Membership fees help to cover administration, insurance, tools. There are no refunds for membership fees as space has been reserved for the gardener in the program.
