Community Gardens

The Washougal Parks & Recreation Community Garden Program features our Downtown Community Garden, located at 2036 Main Street. This shared space brings residents together to grow food, build connections, and practice sustainable, ecologically responsible gardening.

We’re growing—and you’re invited to be part of it. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just getting started, the Community Garden is a place to learn, connect, and help cultivate a healthier Washougal.

Lease/Renew a Garden Plot
Gardeners have the opportunity to grow flowers, fruits, and vegetables in privately leased plots, while also working together to care for shared community spaces within the garden.

Gardening is one of the most popular recreational activities in the country, offering opportunities for physical activity, stress relief, and access to fresh, nutritious food. The City of Washougal recognizes community gardening as a valuable activity that supports the health and well-being of the entire community.

By gardening together, participants gain opportunities for:

• Education and skill-building

• Environmental awareness and sustainability

• Social connection among neighbors of all ages and backgrounds

• Intergenerational and cross-cultural engagement

The Community Garden is more than a place to grow plants—it’s a place to grow community.
