Community Spaces
Restaurant Gardens
We here at Reap & Sow Farm have been deeply entrenched in the world of Farm to Table for more than the last decade. We’ve run and managed both the farm and the table, so we understand what many of your produce needs are. In the past we’ve set up planter boxes and raised beds for restaurants to help supply them with various crops. Some of what we can set up for you are:
Edible Flowers and Garnish
Herbs
Cut and Come Again Greens
Microgreen Set-Ups
Cut Flowers for Decor and Table Decoration
Raised Beds for Produce
In-Ground Beds for Produce
School and Church Gardens
We’re of the opinion that gardens in community spaces, such as schools and churches, can help to strengthen a community. From the benefits of eating good, healthy, local produce to the bonding formed among community members working in the gardens, a garden at your school or place of worship can add to your community in countless ways. We can provide the following for your school or church:
Raised Beds
In-Ground Growing (including no-till gardens)
Perennial Plantings - Fruits, Trees, and More
Greenhouses and High Tunnels
Irrigation Systems
Planting and Maintenance
Spring and Fall Clean-up and Servicing - We’ll get your garden up and running in the spring and we’ll put it to bed in the fall

Consultation and Design
Consultation is the first step of any garden project. We will come to your property to listen to what you are looking for, to survey the land, and to present some initial design options.
After collecting the relevant information we’ll put together a design proposal for your approval that takes into account your garden desires, budget, and timeframe.
The cost of a consultation starts at $100 for anyone in Chittenden, Addison, and Washington Counties. A consultation to anyone outside of Chittenden, Addison, and Washington Counties, but within a 75 minute drive from our home base in Monkton is $150. Any consultation outside of a 75 minute drive from Monkton is $200.
Installation
Once you’ve approved the design, we’ll schedule a time for installation! The first step will be to prepare the site - leveling any areas that need to be flattened, remove sod if need be, or whatever else needs to be done. We’ll then install your new infrastructure - whether that be raised beds, a new greenhouse, a trellising system, or whatever else we’ve dreamed up together in the design process!
Planting and Maintenence
Now that we’ve built the garden of your dreams, there’s only one step left to bring it to fruition - it needs plants! We’ll get you set up with the crops you want growing in your backyard. After growing for countless restaurants and chefs, while also working in fine dining kitchens, we have amassed a knowledge of our favorite varieties. For our customers who are within 75 miles of our home base in Monkton, Vermont we can provide monthly garden maintenance. Some of the maintenance we can offer includes:
Garden Weeding and Mulching
Fertility Management - fertilizing and other soil amendments to ensure the healthiest plants possible
Pest Management
Plant Management - pruning, renovation, and rehabilitation
