The garden provides a place to learn about growing plants as well as a place to socialise. You don’t have to work on the garden - just “have a yarn” and catch up with the community.
Volunteer Chris Dewar has been going there for years and says it’s like therapy for him. People come after a bad weekend and leave with a smile of their faces.
The centre also hosts a number of health and other services and distributes vegie boxes to elders and families. The project is run by dietitician Sophia Malie, who includes a recipe suggestion.
