This small community garden boasts the sweetest design for a p-patch I’ve seen in a Seattle park. The stairway, which has tile art on each step, leads up to a round storage building that looks like something playfully designed to resemble a Disney cartoon.
All the landscaping is beautifully done to welcome people up the steep hill to inspect what neighbors are growing in the p-patch gardens. It is also wheelchair and stroller accessible.
Wondering how p-patch got its name? I wrote about the original one a while back.

Linnea wow you’re going great guns!! Have you ventured into nearby Park #6 (there’s a south section and a north section, the latter with beaver pond), and to the Thornton Creek Water Quality Channel? They’re fantastic and all in the same area as the Maple Leaf Communit Gardens…I haven’t searched your blog so they may all be here. Anyway thanks, we use your blog sometimes as a reference… Best regards, Jake & Cathy
