We are a membership based Community Garden of local neighbors who get together to learn about gardening, sustainable living, socialise and have a good time!

Come and visit us at Woolcott Reserve, Newport.


HOW IT WORKS

You don’t need to be an expert gardener to join!

Becoming a member of the garden provides the opportunity to forge friendships with your local community and learning the principles of organic gardening, recycling, composting, worm farming, native bees, and other techniques associated with sustainable living.

Together we plan, plant and harvest fruits, vegetables and herbs that we have sustainably and organically grown in our communal garden beds.

Members meet every weekend (usually on Saturday mornings) for general upkeep; watering, pruning, weeding, pest control, compost and worm farm care, crop harvesting and of course a social chat over a cuppa.

Our Major Working Bee is every second Saturday of the month where we undertake the bigger activities like constructing new garden beds, building trellis frames, mulching and ground maintenance.

All members are expected to attend the major working bee as this is where we discuss future plans for the garden and socialise over a cuppa.
