Garden Expansion Community Update:
A community gathering is planned for a conversation around the garden expansion on April 16, 2026 at 6:30pm at the Bower Community Hall. It will be an opportunity for the community residents to learn about where we are at with the garden expansion and provide input. Everyone is welcome to attend. Coffee/Tea and Dessert will be provided.
Contact gardens@bowercommunity.ca if you have any questions.
Welcome to the Bower Community Gardens, a vibrant space where residents can grow their own plants and connect with neighbors. Located at 460 Barrett Drive, right across from Bower Mall and the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, our gardens feature twelve raised community plots available for use. Join us in the spring when applications for garden plots open, and embrace the joy of gardening while enjoying the great outdoors! See below for more details.
Thank you to Enviro Containers and Recycling Solutions of Innisfail for donating the water container for the gardens, and to The City of Red Deer for keeping the water container full for the gardeners.
Cost
The cost to book a garden plot is $25 for the season. The plots are available first to Bower residents until April 15th and then it will be open to other Red Deer residents.
Garden season is from May 1st (or earlier, depending on the weather) to Oct 15th.
