Community Gardens within the Wingecarribee Shire

The values of the Wingecarribee community gardens are personal independence, social interaction, sustainable lifestyles and learning in a family friendly environment.

There are wonderful Community Gardens within the Wingecarribee Shire, including;

Moss Vale Community Garden

Location: 16 Railway Street, Moss Vale (next to the tennis courts)
Website: www.mossvalecommunitygarden.org.au

Opening times: Mondays 10:30 - 4.00, Thursdays 9.30 - 5.00

The Moss Vale Community garden is a non-profit group that has been running for the past nine years. The group currently has around 20 members with membership growing due to an increased focus on growing your own food and local food security and sustainability.

The garden provides the community with a valuable resource as it provides a base from which the community can get hands-on experience and training in growing fruit, vegetables and herbs suited to local conditions.

Council assisted Moss Vale Community Garden with a 2013 Seniors Week grant application and the removal of four cypress leylandii trees shading the garden. Council will also be supporting the connection of Moss Vale Community Garden with Meals on Wheels and assist with infrastructure development proposals later this year.
