GARDEN CLOSING NOVEMBER 1, 2023.

After six successful years of cultivation, the 4th & Macdonald Temporary Community Garden will be closing on November 1, 2023.

We would first like to thank you all for being a part of this garden project. Your efforts nurtured beautiful crops and fostered the coming together of community. Over this time, we estimate that we have collectively produced 15,000 pounds of food! 

The space was established in October 2017 and provided 100 garden beds to the Kitsilano community, enabling the growth of both food and flowers. However, the time has come for this garden to make way for much needed rental homes. 

So, what does this mean? 

For now, the garden remains open and will officially close on November 1, 2023. You are welcome to make use of the space between now and then and we recommend you remove any belongings or plants you wish to keep at your earliest convenience. While we will be dismantling the garden beds and garden infrastructure, you are welcome to take the soil from your garden bed if you can make use of it elsewhere.

Given the temporary nature of these community gardens, it’s challenging to predict when or if a new one will be established. However, we would love to welcome you back into another garden space, should the opportunity arise in the future.

Thank you, and here’s to a great six years of growth!
