Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Email pastoriusgardens@gmail.com to ask about joining or volunteering, and ask when the next work day is, since the site lists none..

What to expect

The garden is an organic community garden and permaculture fruit orchard, supported by the Germantown Mennonite Historic Trust. The site describes shared growing and sharing seeds and recipes, and it lists a music series with no details. It does not say how a first visit works or whether visitors can walk in.

Tips for your first visit

  • Ask by email before you come, since the site does not say whether visitors can walk in.
  • Check the hours first: 8 am to 6 pm in winter and 8 am to 8 pm in summer.

Newcomer welcome

Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: The site gives hours and an email, but no waitlist, plot, work day or membership details, so the way in is unclear..
