Community Gardens

​The Southeast Community Organization helps coordinate two community gardens in our area:
  1. Winthrop Gardens (formerly Boys Totem Town) Community Garden
  2. Conway Gardens (formerly Garden of Feed 'Em)
The community garden program allows residents to use a piece of land for the growing season. Participants join on a first come, first served basis. Gardeners from previous years are assured their spaces each year, and we take names for waiting lists for garden availability.

Priority is given to Southeast residents in District 1, than eastside residents, then St. Paul residents and lastly, Ramsey County residents. As a gardener, you may decide what to plant, and what to do with what you grow. All gardeners must agree to a working collaboratively and assisting with the overall upkeep of the garden. Gardening fees pay for the costs of water, supplies and services. Note, as it gets closer to the summer, it will be more difficult to get an open plot. But we maintain a waiting list for interested gardeners.

Please complete this form to submit your interest!

Winthrop Community Garden

The Winthrop Community Garden features a large plot of land dedicated to growing food for the community food shelf.

This garden site rarely has available spaces. It is located next to the Ramsey County Battle Creek/Highwood Compost Site.

Conway Garden

The Conway Garden located on the Conway Recreational Center parkland, just east of the tennis courts.

This garden started ten years ago. Because it is on St. Paul Parks and Recreation property, only St. Paul residents may garden here,
