Meg’s food and family garden
Northcote VIC
Australia
This organic garden boasts a wide variety of fruit, herbs and vegetables and also demonstrates that food gardens can be both productive spaces and recreational places. The family work, eat and play here. Self-sufficiency is not the aim, but the garden flourishes thanks to a very efficient composting system, donated worm juice and water tanks. Excess harvest, as well as saved seeds and gardening tips, are swapped with neighbours creating a wonderful food community. Go and be convinced that city people with busy work and family lives can also be a part of the growing urban agriculture movement.
This event is part of the Backyard Harvest Festival.
