Moab Community Gardens

Moab Community Gardens (MoCom) was founded in 2017 by Becky Mann and operated for six years under the umbrella of a local nonprofit, the Resiliency Hub. When Becky moved away from Moab in early 2024, management was transferred to YGP in order to continue this important program.

MoCom’s goal is to provide land access and support local food security in Moab and Spanish Valley through the development of sustainable, organic community gardens. MoCom aims to create welcoming community spaces that are open and safe for people of all abilities and backgrounds.

Currently, we operate plots at three sites: East Bench, Wabi Sabi, and Our Village Community Center.

2024 Plots are currently FULL – join our waitlist to be first to know when plots become available in 2025!

How does it work?

COST: Plots cost $60 for a full season.

SIZE: Each plot is ~200 sq. ft. (with slight variations).

COMMITMENT: All gardeners are required to put in 5 hours of volunteer service annually to help maintain the communal space, ideally during weekend work days. Attendance at Gardener Orientation in the spring is required for all new and returning plot holders.

PLOTS: Space is limited and offered on first-come, first-served basis.

NOTE: Gardeners at Our Village Community Center must be able to pass a background check.
