Punchbowl Community Garden

Located in the picturesque Punchbowl reserve the gardens are on a north west facing sloping block.

The Rotary Club of Youngtown were gifted the land by the council in 1997 and since then we have expanded to close to 100 plots, a greenhouse,  chickens and a small orchard. Two sheds house all the tools you require to manage your plot, and tea and coffee are available in the main building. Toilets on site.

The plots are individually owned by members and you are encouraged to grow and share produce using the trade table.

Working bees and seasonal events occur to help connect garden members.
