COGS Kambah Community Garden

The Kambah Community Garden has been operated by the Canberra Organic Growers Society since 2001.

We have on average around 25 gardeners allocated individual plots which they put to productive use growing food for themselves and their families. We apply ourselves to growing food all year round using sustainable organic gardening practices that build and continuously improve the quality of the soil and the environment to which we are entrusted. We emphasise collaboration within the garden with all plot holders sharing communal vegetable and herb garden cultivation, composting and general maintenance.

Keeping connected to the Canberra community is very important to us. We welcome visitors and hold occasional open day events with food stalls and plant sales and have donated proceeds to Companion House and our Goodwill Garden program.

The Kambah Garden is located at the corner of Springbett Street and O’Halloran Circuit, Kambah – adjacent to the Kambah Woolshed. It is set in a beautiful park landscape with a view of Mount Taylor.
