Welcome to WBCG

The community garden is located in Bunya Park, Eleebana. We have regular scheduled Working Bees on the 3rd Saturday of each month from 9 am to 2 pm, and every Wednesday from 3 to 5 pm. Bring the family and share in the experience of growing friendship, food and community.

Next working bee is in the garden Saturday 18th August from 09:00 to 14:00

We will be constructing new garden beds, ready for spring planting.

Lunch provided.

Come along and you can help to create a unique community facility, and enjoy the garden.

As well as the regular working bees, there are lots of activities to particpate including seedling growing, stalls, composting, garden planning, information events and regular social catch-ups over morning tea. It is also likely to be some activity in the garden on weekends and sometimes during the week.
