A community garden needs one special ingredient to make it great – community! Everybody in the neighbourhood has something valuable to contribute to this garden and the CottonTree Community Garden is encouraging all local community members to be a part of it. Come to one of our meetings (held monthly on the third Wednesday of every month, become a friend of the garden and share your ideas or skills, nominate yourself for a committee position, propagate seedlings – there are lots of ways you can get involved:

The year in review 2011
since it's inception in 2010, the community garden has grown and taken on a whole new look. 2011 saw 13 extra garden beds built, as well as a new green/shade house, garden shed, a main entrance arbour erected and an addional water tank installed. In addition to the above mentioned, a mandala garden and 2 wooden wicking beds have been constructed outside the Maroochy Neighbourhood Centre as part of our community free pick area. 2012 will see two more wicking beds completed as well as extra bench seating inside the community garden. More photos coming soon:
