Coburg Community Garden Festival

Over 3 fantastic days in December (1st-3rd) we will be opening our Community Gardens and bringing people together to share skills and knowledge and learn more about growing food, creating spaces for native plants and animals, using water wisely and reducing waste. There will be a range of activities on offer including a program of free workshops/events (bookings essential), offered across multiple sites around Coburg,
