Community Garden plan for Malak

The Waters Ward aldermen discussed establishing a community garden for Malak last week. The community arts project also has it on their plans - so hopefull we should be able to progress something between us all - there is certainly the will!

At the International Cities and Town Conference I attended in Sydney, Dandenong Community discussed another option where using permaculture principles, volunteers create an edible home garden in a person's backyard. After planning and obtaining the gear etc, it can be done in one day. The garden is then left to the owner to tend.

Contact me for further details and a link to their website.
