COMING SOON — COMMUNITY GARDEN!

We are delighted to announce that a 60-bed Community Garden next to our farm will soon become a reality and resource for our east Austin neighbors.

Thanks goes to Roberts Communities for funding this long-anticipated amenity and to neighbors who persisted in achieving this dream despite numerous obstacles.

Village Farm residents, especially those in the Garden Club, have meet monthly on our farm since 2021 to steward garden and farm areas in and around our tiny home community and to spearhead the creation of an allotment garden.

Having lived on Decker Lane for 20 years, we know that community interest in an allotment garden existed even before Village Farm (VF) began. This desire was captured by our customer surveys and by TBG Design, who conducted research prior to designing VF. (The creation of our farm-focused neighborhood began in 2015 after Roberts Communities purchased 250 acres that included the 10-acres we farmed). In addition to wanting better places to shop, good restaurants as well as a place to dance, neighbors said a community garden was a priority.

We couldn’t be happier that plots will be available for planting by October! Be sure to reserve one or two for yourself! Stay tuned for more details…
