South Capilano Temporary COmmunity Garden

The South Capilano Temporary Community Garden was a temporary growing space in the South Capilano neighbourhood in North Vancouver, BC, Canada. Built in 2013, the garden had 68 community garden beds, seating, and a community board. This allotment garden was built for community members to grow food and flowers.

The garden was decommissioned after 3 successful growing seasons in late 2015. The garden was removed and the project was completed with the construction of high-density residential housing. The project journey was successful: vacant lot > temporary garden > housing.
