Discovery Park Community Garden

Discovery Park Community Garden is located on Discovery Drive behind the dog park on the north side of Discovery Park. The Garden is located on property owned by Bend Park & Recreation District, and is managed by OSU Extension Master Gardener Volunteers.
The cost of a raised bed for the season is $40.
Each 4’ x 10’ raised bed is equipped with micro sprayers for irrigation. The automatic watering system is centrally adjusted during the season to compensate for weather and the watering needs of garden plants.
OSU Master Gardener Volunteers are available to be a gardening resource and to assist gardeners.
Gardening classes are held throughout the growing season. See the COMGA Calendar or OSU/Deschutes County Extension website for information.
The 2025 gardening season will run from April 19th to October 11th.
