Museum
Our museum offers residents, former residents and their families an opportunity to view their community from its beginning in the 1800’s to the present day. Visitors can reflect on their childhood days of attending the school, their activities during the summer and the team sports they participated in while living here. During the May Day celebration and the summer months there are always one or two tours. Do stop in for a visit to view the many pictures and local history of our community. You can also send an email to Steve Clark at bbar_museum@nili.ca

Community Garden
The community garden is located behind the North Bend Community Center (the old N.B. school) across the Fraser River from Boston Bar. The garden provides plots and fertile soil for those wishing to indulge their green thumb, and nurture lasting friendships with other like-minded gardeners. The community gardeners often donate fresh produce to Family Place, the Food Bank and/or the Community Lunch program. Seniors (55+) are more than welcome to join in the fun at the weekly Sunday Garden Party which starts at 4pm. You don't even have to be a gardener to enjoy this delightful social get together. Just bring a lawn chair, an appetizer to share and beverages. It's a delightful way to while away a sunny Sunday afternoon.
