Welcome to the Bamboo Forest at Parker Learning Gardens! We are a nonprofit educational 33-acre farm located 10 miles north of Eugene, Oregon, right between the small towns of Coburg and Harrisburg. Our campsites are located at our 3+ acre Bamboo Forest, with covered platforms located alongside and underneath the canopy of our whimsical corridor of huge Linden Trees. The campsites have access to a wood-fired earthen cob oven, an outdoor kitchen sink, and a covered eating/cooking space. There are over 40 varieties of bamboo in our densely-packed 35-year-old Bamboo Forest. You are welcome to explore this unique forest by navigating through our meandering trail system. Elsewhere on the farm we have over 500 fruit trees, many farm animals, and 12 demonstration gardens. We offer seasonal educational programming from Spring-Fall, with various community classes, workshops and field trips for schools. The mission of Parker Learning Gardens involves immersing people of all ages in nature while demonstrating how to: grow food organically, tend to the land from an ecological perspective, incorporate animals in a regenerative way, and be conscious environmental stewards. If you are interested, there may be an option for a private educational tour for an additional fee (dependent on timing and availability). Otherwise, your stay will be private with open access to the trail system of our Bamboo Forest and huge Linden Tree Grove (approximately 5 acres of of beautiful wondering space to explore and unwind). We are about 5 miles from the I-5 exit in Coburg. The farm is located in the old floodplain of the Willamette River, with close access to places to swim just a short car drive away. There are amazing hikes within 30 minutes, and many family and youth activities/opportunities nearby (check the Eugene weekly event calendar).

Awesome camp site!
Great spot and had the place all to myself with my pup! The orchard and bamboo forest is really cool! Really enjoyed my stay for a fun night of camping.

Woodfired pizza and camping
This was a unique campsite. There are only 2 spots and we had it by ourselves. We booked it as we were excited about the wood fired oven. It didn’t disappoint. We had a great time making pizzas. We wandered through the bamboo forest. A lovely spot. Our tent is a large 3 man and fit perfectly on the platform. If you have a bigger one it could go on the ground beside.

Really neat bamboo forest!
Had a quick 1-night stay as I was passing through. Was just enough for what I needed and met some kind neighboring campers as well. Loved the bamboo forest for a morning walk with my dog. Wish I had more time to explore through it.

Peaceful and Shaded
We really, really enjoyed the bamboo forrest and the shaded campsite. Although the two sites are relatively close to each other it didn't bother us since we were gone most of the day as were the other guests. Definitely bring lighting because it is dark at night. The primitive outhouse took a little getting used to but no bad odors to deal with. No showers at the site so bring your own or go to the local TA truck stop for a hot shower (8 min away). We did and it worked out perfectly on the way to Eugene. The common area sink was convenient as well as the picnic bench. Super shaded site. Would go back.
