oak & 41st Temporary Community Garden
The Oak and 41st Temporary Community Garden was a temporary growing space in the Oakridge neighbourhood of Vancouver, BC, Canada. The garden was located at the corner of Oak St. and West 41st Ave. The temporary growing space was assembled in October 2017 and had 100 community garden beds, in addition to seating, garden art and a community noticeboard! This allotment garden was for community members to grow food and flowers.
The garden was decommissioned in October 2024

May is a great month to get most seeds and starts in the ground, so it can be a busy time!
We wanted to take a moment to thank you for participating in our temporary community garden - we are honoured to create spaces for people to grow and enjoy being outside together.
We have an update for you - the owners/developers of the land where the garden stands, have warned us that development is going to begin within the next few months.
