First located on landfill that is now the northwest corner of the Interbay Family Golf Center's driving range, the garden has moved twice.

In 1980 the Seattle City Council passed a resolution that guaranteed an acre for community gardening on the Interbay landfill.

Garden volunteers used money from a Neighborhood Matching Grant to build the first tool shed and compost bins.

In 1997 the Interbay P-Patch was established as a permanent site on its present-day location, extending north from Wheeler Street along 15th Avenue West.

The "Gathering Bell" at the edge of the garden's plaza was given to Airgas Nor Pac as thanks for its financial support of cystic fibrosis cure research.

Bruce Swee designed the Interbay P-Patch flag donated to the garden by John and Vickie Bjorkman in 2005.

Garden fundraising events also funded Bruce Swee's design and construction of the steel gates on the chipper/shredder storage shed in 2007.
