Community Gardens Australia (CGA) is a place to connect with peers, share experiences and develop a common cause around issues and opportunities affecting community gardens around the country. We will keep you up to date with the latest news and advice and work to further enhance our offerings to members.
Your generous support will help us continue to expand our work, develop a more engaged and connected community of gardens and further develop the resources that you need.
NOTE: This is not information about how to join a particular garden.
You need to join directly to that garden — to find that garden you wish to join, go to the CGA map listing webpage to find their contact details.
CGA does not create, manage or maintain any community gardens. Community gardens are operated by their own groups and associations.
