Waverley Community Garden

Cabbage?

The Waverley Community Garden is located behind Clementson Park, cnr Ebley Street and Newland St, Bondi Junction. Established in 1999, the Garden was renewed by Council in 2007.
The Garden includes 26 ‘kitchen garden’ plots licensed out to individual gardeners, 2 double plots licensed out to community organisations and 2 plots in a children’s learning area.

The Garden also features an ‘edible native border’, composting facilities, a rain water tank, a pond, storage sheds and a shaded meeting space for public activities such as environmental education.

A licence to garden a plot will allow the individual or group to plant, tend and harvest annual (food) crops using organic gardening methods, access to a share of water, compost and mulch, and use of some shared gardening tools.

Council’s aims for the Garden are:

  • To provide Waverley residents who have little or no access to a garden with the opportunity to be in touch with the earth through individually licensed plots
  • To provide special needs groups with the opportunity to garden as an organised, supervised activity, through licensing plots to selected community organisations
  • To provide all members of the Waverley community with the opportunity to access the garden through organised, supervised activities open to the public.
