The space features raised garden beds, decking, artificial turf, barbecues and a basketball hoop.
New Horizons Tasmania chief executive Belinda Kitto paid tribute to the late Rotary Club of Launceston president Charles Black and project manager John Williams, who helped get the project off the ground.
Ms Kitto said the space had previously been difficult for everyone to utilise.
"Now everyone can access this venue," she said.
Rotary Tasmania district governor Michael Cooke said the space was "a fantastic sight to see and a wonderful project".
