Renewal for the 2026 Season will begin on February 10, 2026. If you wish to renew the same plot as the previous season, you must renew no later than February 19th. All plots not renewed by this date will be released for general sale. Due to the high demand for garden plots, only two plots may be renewed, any remaining plots as of March 19, 2026 may be rented by current plot holders.



Pollinator Friendly

The City of Gahanna strives to protect pollinators and encourages residents to do the same. A pollinator is any insect or animal that visits plants and moves pollen. Ultimately, this activity allows the plant to generate seeds that continue the cycle of life for the plant species while yielding fruits, vegetables and nuts consumed by humans and animals alike.

Bees, butterflies, beetles, bats, flies, hummingbirds and moths are all pollinators. Pollinators are currently threatened with a loss of habitat and food sources. Gahanna encourages pollinator-friendly habitats to ensure the survival of vital animal species, improve regional food production and stimulate the local economy.
