Getting to the Campus Gardens

Wasatch Community Gardens often has limited street parking during our events so we encourage carpooling, bicycling, or taking public transit. For guests who do drive to campus, if you are able to, we ask that you consider parking further away to leave parking spaces closer to the entrance for fellow guests who might need them. 

The nearest curb cuts are on the corner of Green Street 800 South, and 600 East 800 South.

There is one ADA parking spot in the Sprouts Apartments parking lot off of Green Street. Additional accessible parking is available in the lot upon request. Please use the Accommodations Request/Feedback Form to request a spot in the parking lot during an event or call (801) 359-2658. For more information, see our Campus Access Social Story,  a visual guide that includes photos of Campus facilities.
