Purchased in 2008, The Spring Street P-Patch is a newly opened community garden located at 25th Avenue East and East Spring Street in Seattle's Central District. The garden was designed by the community with both gardeners and community in mind. Please feel free to wander through or sit in this welcoming p-patch! Three plots have special designations:
-Food Bank Plot
-Youth Group Plot
-Accessible Plot

We are looking for someone to garden in the raised beds in the northeast corner of the p-patch. Please contact Kenya Fredie at Kenya.Fredie@seattle.gov or 206-733-9243 if you know of someone who needs an accessible raised bed to garden in.
