The garden came into existence in 2021 on an abandoned tennis court adjacent to Croxton Railway Station.
Most of the vegetables, herbs and berries are grown in custom-built wicking beds. Tools and equipment are on-site and a composting and worm farm setup provides much of the nutrients required. As of 2023, a small fruit tree orchard is expanding, and an edible indigenous plant garden is being developed. A local kindergarten has a small, child-sized veggie bed just for them.
The garden is a place for growing food, eco-sustainability, sharing activities, fun and learning together.
