Adjacent to the park on the west side is the Beacon Food Forest, a 7 acres (2.8 ha) volunteer-run forest gardening project that provides food to neighbors and food shelves.Beacon Food Forest (Wikipedia)
Beacon Food Forest is a 7-acre food forest in development adjacent to Jefferson Park on Beacon Hill in Seattle, Washington in the vicinity of 15th Avenue South and South Dakota Street. As the area sits on land owned by Seattle Public Utilities, it is believed to be the largest food forest on public land in the United States. The project also has more traditional private allotments, similar to those in other local P-Patch gardens.
