One of the most popular amenities of Discovery West is the nearby beautiful Discovery Park Community Garden. Located on Discovery Park Drive near the dog park, this garden offers 4’x10’ raised beds available for rent for $40 for the 2025 Season. Each bed has micro sprayers controlled automatically and adjusted continually throughout the season to compensate for weather. New gardeners will be allocated available beds through a lottery system, which is currently accepting applications until March 30th.
To participate in the lottery, complete the application at this link. Returning gardeners in good standing will keep the plots they rented the previous year. The drawing will take 
place on March 31, and results will be communicated to applicants via email. Lottery winners will receive their raised bed assignments with the completion of registration. Remaining lottery applicants will be placed on a waiting list and notified by email of their status on the list.
The garden is managed by OSU Extension Master Gardener Volunteers with support from Bend Park & Recreation District. If you’re looking to sharpen your gardening skills or need assistance, OSU Master Gardener Volunteers are available to help! Gardening classes are also held throughout the growing season. See the Central Oregon Master Gardener Association website for information and the schedule for 2025.
