City Vision - Environment A leafy City through parks, gardens, trees and the built environment |
Community Gardens are where communities can utilise an allotment of publicly owned land for growing vegetables, fruit or flowers.
The City of Ryde will support groups establishing a Community Garden by helping with identification of land, horticultural advice and liason services. Experience has shown that the most successful Community Gardens are where the community or group has ownership of the project, making their own decisions on budgets, planning and the nature of the garden.
There are noted positive outcomes when the community become involved in managing an area of parkland, such as a reduction in antisocial activity, and an increase in the use of the park.
Interested groups should contact City of Ryde's Customer Services on (02) 9952 8222.
