There are several openings for residents to have garden plots this spring and summer at the two Sartell Community Gardens.
Each plot, which costs $25 per year, is 20 feet by 20 feet. That rental fee covers the use of the space, water and garden tools. The city starts each season with city staff tilling and fertilizing the two gardens. With both combined, there is a total of 106 plots. One garden is located by Oak Ridge Elementary School, the other on the east side of Sartell by the water-treatment plant. The Sartell Community Gardens project was started by Sartell residents Dennis Molitor and Kaye Wenker about five years ago, Molitor noted.
Those who would like to rent a plot must be Sartell residents.
