Shared gardens
Joining a shared garden group is a great way to connect with the community through shared activities and goals. Not only will you have access to fresh and organic produce grown in your community, you will have the opportunity to learn gardening techniques and sustainable practices from experienced members.
Waverley Council supports a range of shared garden groups in various locations across the Local Government Area, which welcome new members interested in helping to maintain their garden and improving the neighbourhood.
Use our interactive map to find a shared garden group near you. If you’re interested in joining a shared garden group, email publicgardening@waverley.nsw.gov.au or call 9083 8916.
