A Market-Garden Past

John Lawrey established a market garden here after settling in 1882. The City connects the park's name to his role in supplying fruit and vegetables during Calgary's early growth. Today, paved paths, trails and a designated off-leash area are among the park's features.

Access Information

The City lists approaches from Cedar Crescent SW and the west end of 10 Avenue SW beneath Crowchild Trail Bridge. Consult the official park information and pathway notices for the route and access conditions relevant to a visit.
