Built in the 1980's, the 4th East Garden may be the oldest existing community garden in Salt Lake City. The garden features 25 allotment plots, a rooftop rainwater harvesting system, beehives, chickens, and a plethora of flowers, herbs and vegetables, including tomatoes, corn, pumpkins, pears, apples, peaches, strawberries, and raspberries.

Creekside Community Garden is located at Ben Franklin Park at the site of a former fishing clubhouse. It serves 38 families within the fence, and the community at large outside the fence with the "You Pick It" area. There are 2 ADA plots, in the form of large galvanized watering troughs. The participants take pride in this beautiful garden, and grow flowers along with vegetables to attract pollinators and visitors as well. The gardeners come to visit one another as much as to garden, and many have expressed that it is the sense of community that brings them the greatest joy.

Fairpark Community Garden is a haven in the middle of a highly diverse part of Salt Lake City. It is a growing, learning, caring community of like-minded people.

The site of the Fairpark Garden had been previously surfaced with road base and gravel, and used as a State Fair parking lot up until 1993. After getting permission from the City to convert the site into a garden, staff rented a D-8 bulldozer with hydraulic rippers to break up the ground over the entire area to a depth of three feet. Salt Lake City put up the fence, and cultivation began.

The Garden of Wheadon is located on the historic 55 acre farm of Gene and Deane Wheadon, who preserved the land as open space in perpetuity. Turning down offers of millions of dollars to sell their land for development, Gene put it bluntly, "I don't want to sell the farm. Money is no good; you can't eat money. City people don't understand that." The land has now been set aside as a Salt Lake County Park, an urban farm, and our forty plot community garden thanks to the firm conviction of its previous stewards.

The Gateway Community Garden, located just west of Gateway Plaza, has been a thriving productive green space since its opening in Fall 2018. This dynamic garden not only beautifies the urban landscape but also plays a vital role in fostering connections among residents and gardeners alike. Providing growing space to over 80 households from the downtown metro area, it stands out as one of the few productive green spaces in the heart of Salt Lake City.

The garden occupies more than 1/2 acre on the east side of Salt Lake City, at 600 E 800 S. It includes an artesian well that waters our garden plots, as well as a beautiful straw bale greenhouse and a hoop house. It is also the site of our annual Tomato Sandwich Party! Corn, tomatoes, pumpkins, pears, apples, peaches, strawberries, raspberries and a wide variety of herbs are regulars in this garden. With so much space, we are able to grow a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.

Harmony Community Garden is located in the North East corner of Harmony Park, adjacent to the baseball field. We have four raised beds, and over thirty in-ground plots. Our common areas include fruit trees and a common plot for herbs and flowers. We have an 8'x10' shed with a variety of garden tools. Our garden is made up of single gardeners, families, elderly and refugees. Keep your heads up and watch for the fly balls!

The Harrison Community Garden opened in 2022. A local community member was interested in enriching the area through a community garden. With Wasatch Community Garden’s support and the local community member’s efforts in connecting interested stakeholders, this stretch of land has been stewarded as a community garden that now sits along 700 East. Josh Scheuerman, a local artist, led the gardeners in painting the tool shed, providing a vibrant backdrop to a lush garden landscape. This garden provides a productive green space for residents to grow local, healthy, organic food, bringing their ideas to life, either through new varieties of plants or ways to grow hops to brew beer.

In 2007, a group of like-minded neighbors pulled together to form the Historic Sandy Community Garden. Their purpose was two-fold: to give people a great place to garden, and to help cultivate a stronger sense of community. By either measure, the garden has been a significant success.

After its first two seasons, the garden was moved to its current location—a privately owned, quarter-acre parcel set in the heart of the Historic Sandy district. The Historic Sandy Community Garden currently offers 23 plots that can be rented individually.

In the past, the Historic Sandy Community Garden also featured a pumpkin patch where gardeners grow heirloom pumpkins in preparation for the garden’s annual Pumpkinfest held at harvest time. However, now that area is available for those interested in growing on a larger "microfarm" scale.

The Magna Community Garden is comprised of young people and the young at heart. We are located a block north of historic Magna Main Street, within Copper Park, which has many play areas for children. One of the play areas is close to the garden. We have a beautiful shed that was donated and decorated by a volunteer youth group. The shed houses tools that can be used by any gardener. Next to the shed are three compost bins. There are 31 large growing beds in total, including three raised beds, for people who have trouble getting to the ground.
