Welcome to the Coquitlam River Community Garden

There are 650 individual garden plots as well as a berry border, demonstration plots, small orchard, tool sheds, a pagoda, a food bank garden and an area for community group plots.

The garden is a wonderful way to enjoy nature, see organic growing techniques in action, and get ideas for home gardening. We ask that all visitors stay on the pathways. Please respect the hard work of gardeners by not picking their produce. The fruits, vegetables and flowers grown in the garden belong to the gardeners. No produce is for sale or distribution.

Culvert Project: Parking lot restrictions


Work on a culvert project is scheduled to continue until approximately September 30th. Available parking in the lot will be reduced.

Park visitors are encouraged to access the park from the Shaughnessy entrance but gardeners can still expect to find parking in the lot very limited. Consider tending your plot very early in the morning or later in the evening.
