The gardens would like to put a call out for volunteers, do you have a keen interest in gardening! or do you just like being outside, freinds and members of The Miss Llewella Davies Camden Town Farm Community Gardens meet up every month for a free BBQ, the 3rd sunday at 40 Exeter St Camden. The next one is this Sunday the 18th of March.
This is a chance for anyone interested from the general community to exchange ideas, (OK maybe pull a few weeds) see what everyone is growing and just have a general catch up. The gardens are wheelchair accessible and have toilet facilities on site, dogs need to be leashed and children supervised, the gardens are open sunrise to sunset for inspection, produce is available in the form of herbs at the produce markets every second saturday and funds from these go back to the gardens in one step towards making it more self funded.
The gardens and the town farm as well as being a meeting place are a great venue that can be used by the community for functions, the booking officer can be contacted on 46455009.
These gardens have become a great resource for the community but do have a degree of reliance on volunteers, a huge thanks has to go out to the resident gardeners and present supporters, namely Camden Council, Department Human Services, CPE Tree Service, Camden Garden Club members, Camden Park Volunteers (see rosemary planting), Dart West and BMD Group.
Should anyone want any further details you can also contact Steve Cooper - Community Project Officer 0n 0467531972.
