Are you interested in starting a community garden in your neighborhood? Take a look at the Sustainable Gardening Australia - Community Gardens Manual. SGA have been instrumental in getting the YCG up and running, and in particular the SGA's Elaine Shallue. Through her experience in the creation of 5 Community Gardens & 6 POD Community Food Spaces in regional Victoria, Elaine has put together this fantastic manual.
There is a wealth of information from how to gauge the communities needs, how to asses a site for suitability, how to design and prepare the garden, and how to form a management group that can continue to engage the community and evolve the garden into the future.
