    We have a community garden in Onslow that we would like to register, it is approx 1,400kms north west of Perth and we have just about completed all our major foundation work with an emphasis on health being the main focus of our garden. It has a fruit forest and a large outdoor kitchen and wood fired oven and will be a meeting place for community groups and host monthly market days and be used to deliver health related services and larger community events. We have a page on facebook “Onslow Community garden” and would love to join any networks that will give us the ability to interact and learn from other models especially in Australia.

    Kind regards,

    Marcelle Coakley

    Hi,
    ive contemplating on going onto the raw food diet as its just come to my attention that it could heal my Crohn’s Disease. This would mean i would need to go organic, the cost of organic is an issue for me. I have been told that there are organic community gardens in Perth, that by becoming a part of tending to it you can get your veges cheap or even free. Are you able to point me in the right direction? I live i Scarborough.

    Your help would be appreciated!

    Thanking you

    Alli :)
