Applications are now being accepted for raised beds and standing raised beds at the Wirt County Community Hope Garden.
The garden is located at 110 Washington Street, Elizabeth, WV 26143 and provides
people who live in Wirt County with access to raised beds and standing raised
beds at a minimal cost.
Raised beds make gardening more accessible, provide better soil structure, and a more controlled environment to grow fruits, vegetables and herbs. Standing raised beds provide an opportunity for people with mobility issues to garden more comfortable without putting strain on their back or knees.
There are currently 18 traditional raised beds that are 4 feet wide x 8 feet long. 4 standing raised beds are also available that are approximately 2 feet wide x 3 feet long.
All beds are available to be rented by any person or family who lives in Wirt County. Online applications are available or you can call the Wirt County Extension Office at 304-275-3101. For more information, please visit our Wirt County Community Hope Garden page.
