Your Trash is YOUR Trash

All gardeners are responsible for removing all trash and garden waste from the Blair Road Community Garden. The Board will try to provide for bulk pickup on community work days, but neither the National Park Service, nor DC Government are willing to collect bagged trash from the parking lot area. Your signed permit to use the garden space says that you agree to remove all of your trash with you every time you leave your plot.

Even if you see a growing pile of trash, please do not add to it. We have been lucky in the past, with DPW workers willing to help out, but staff changes make it hard to continue. The Board spent over $500 for the dumpster that was there last month, and that is not how we want to spend your permit fees and contributions.

So just take your trash with you and throw it out at home. You agreed to do just that.

THANK YOU
