Community Gardens

Community gardens provide an excellent forum for both social networking and for learning essential gardening skills. Community gardens can also play an important role in minimising the volume of organic waste destined for landfill by using it to create compost.

The Sustainability Trust works with numerous community gardening groups in the Wellington Area. Find out more about these projects by visiting the Environment Center's home page.
