Shape the Future of Your Neighbourhood

Curbside is pairing homeowners and gardeners to cultivate boulevard space according to the City of Victoria's Boulevard Gardening Guidelines.

Share your boulevard

We will work with gardeners to cultivate and maintain your boulevard, give you access to a raised garden bed, and invite you to all our garden-related workshops and activities.

Participation is free for homeowners.

  1. Gardeners are not strangers

    You will meet all gardeners who may use your boulevard in person before any gardens are established.

  2. You bring the water

    Gardeners will access water from a spigot on your property. You are entitled to compensation for this, if you wish.

  3. Letters of accountability

    After meeting in person to talk through expectations, Curbside will summarize the arrangements we've reached with you and the gardener(s) in a personalized letter — a semi-formal mechanism for keeping everyone aligned and accountable as the season progresses.

  4. Your boulevard, your choice

    You can step away at any time and Curbside will return your boulevard to its original state, within reason.
