About this template
The Chocolate Sunburst Community Garden Certificate is a contemporary Community Garden Certificate template that councils, neighbourhood groups and civic programmes use to thank volunteers for their time. On CerShare it comes in the Allotment Green colour scheme, with a sunburst as the centrepiece; the lettering pairs Quicksand with Nunito Sans. You will also find it under Appreciation on CerShare.

How to customise it
You can rewrite the whole certificate; the beds tended and harvest shared fields are already in place, and you can delete the ones you don’t need. Prefer another look? Switch to the Kitchen Garden or Harvest Clay colour scheme, or pick any colour you like. Need portrait instead of landscape, or US Letter instead of A4? Change it in one click. Change the font or the size of any line if your text is longer than the sample. You can also upload a logo or a photo and place it anywhere on the page.
Printing tips
Use a smooth white paper rather than parchment, so the clean lines stay sharp. Choose A4 in Europe and most of the world, or US Letter in North America, before you download. It fits a standard certificate frame or a document folder.
