19.01.2022 Sometimes we need to look back to appreciate how far we've come! Growing a garden based on donations and volunteers can be slow and challenging. Our garden is our passion project. The last thing we want is to loose our drive for our Community Outreach Project because of a few speed bumps! A very clever friend told me to share some 'before' and 'after' pictures to help spark our passion once more and gain a little perspective on how far we've progressed! Check it out!! It really does look amazing and we are so proud and grateful. We know we have a long way to go but look how far we've come

11.01.2022 Hello to our gorgeous gardeners! As you know COVID-19 has impacted our ability to share public spaces safely. Your health and well-being is our utmost priority, as such in these uncertain times we have closed our garden to the general public. The garden is now a place where only Minderoo residents can reside in pairs of two (unless they live together), whilst practicing social distancing. ... We will reopen to the rest of the community as soon as it is safe to do so! Please stay safe and keep up to date on this page <3 Take care!

06.01.2022 This week we are reminded to be like our garden- The community garden doesn't worry about what's happening in the world, it just grows a little more, drinks lots of water and soaks up some sunshine. Let's slow down and be like our garden- we all need a little self care at the moment- so drink lots of water, soak up some sunshine and grow, grow, grow Happy Friday to our beautiful community

04.01.2022 Some gardeners believe that the moon affects the growth of your garden due to it's gravitational pull and it's influence on water e.g. the moisture in the soil may change over the course of the month. We're not too sure about lunar gardening but are fascinated by this beautiful composite photo of the position and phases of the moon over 28 days, each photo taken at the same exact location each day.
