Our Mission
To provide a sunny open space for local residents and students to learn organic gardening skills, grow nutritious food and engage in healthy outdoor exercise.
The TNG will help to reduce carbon footprints and assist in protecting food security by growing vegetables, herbs and flowers locally.
The project is partly modelled on the successful Creek Road Community Garden (Lenah Valley, established in 1997).
