Community Garden

The Crabby Old Pharts Pea Patch, opening April 2026, was made possible by the generous land donation of Larry Miller.

Mr. Miller’s family of local well diggers lived on the property beginning in the early 1900s. An enthusiastic gardener, Mr. Miller often invited neighbors to use his land for gardening as well. Mr. Miller donated the property to the City of Kirkland with the vision of expanding it into a community garden, and he also requested the witty name it carries today.

The garden includes 40 standard plots and 6 ADA-accessible plots, available for reservation by community members. The site is enclosed with variegated fencing and four gates provide convenient access from multiple points. Composting is available onsite. Street parking and a limited number of gravel parking stalls are available near the garden. Several legacy fruit trees remain on the property and within the surrounding park.

Park Donations

Donating funds to a park is a wonderful way to show appreciation for Kirkland, to honor someone special, or to commemorate a milestone. Park benches and tables are the most popular items to donate, however other donations are possible as well, like those for trees or landscape, for general park maintenance, towards public art or other site amenities (i.e. water fountains), and even towards the tools and equipment needed to keep Kirkland’s parks beautiful.
