The Inglewood Community Garden has been active in the historic community of Inglewood since 2003. We believe that it is the largest (contiguous) community garden in Calgary and it also hosts a Communal Garden, which is (we believe) the largest in-ground solely volunteer managed vegetable garden in the city dedicated to providing produce to local service organizations and garden volunteers.

What the Inglewood Community Garden does – is maintain and rent 118 raised beds and 0.157 hectare [0.389 acre] of Communal Garden of which approximately 493 sq m [590 sq yds] has been planted out and is dedicated to providing produce to local community service organizations and garden volunteers.

The Garden offers gardening opportunities to all Calgarians without constraint based upon neighbourhood of residence, physical ability or financial resources.

The Garden boasts an enthusiastic volunteer cadre who, as well as being eminently practical and knowledgeable gardeners, are socially engaged and actively involved in extending the positive benefits of gardening to our community – through donation, co-operation and education.
