Programa detallado
Joes Connected Garden at Elizabeth Grove grow a vast range of fruit, herbs and veg (along with ducks, chickens and bees); Andrews Urban Farm at Elizabeth East grows veg and fruit, but also has honey production, aquaponics and a flock of prizewinning ducks and chickens. We have two small nurseries and a significant national fig collection as well. Around 15 properties are connected across the two locations, of which 9 are available for volunteers. Visitors who stay more than 3 weeks can also volunteer at D'annies Arid Rural Farm.
In our properties we focus on education and host frequent workshops in all aspects of edible gardening and associated horticulture, including propagating, pruning and grafting; resident volunteers can attend our workshops for free. Volunteers can gain skills in various aspects of organic gardening, and also in garden-related construction and the use of tools.
Actividades & Turnos
We are engaged in community development and we host regular activities for local schools, including for indigenous students and those with special needs. We maintain close relationships with grassroots community groups and wwoofers can expect to visit at least one of these in their time here.
John, one of our garden owners, is into cooking and loves experimenting and learning new recipes, so when he is available, volunteers who like food are most welcome. Our giant wood oven at Andrews Urban farm always looks forward to events and workshops with yummy contributions from visitors.😁
