Come along to any day of the week to our site. Tuesday and Saturdays are the busiest days. You can also get involved in a pod. Pods (or working groups) oversee various programs and projects. Get involved in one or as many as you like. To register your interest in any of these areas (see below) or with your own suggestion, please email mullumcommunitygarden@gmail.com.
DESIGN AND INFRASTRUCTURE POD
We are embarking on the exciting process of formulating our ideas into a site plan. We are looking for your ideas. Permaculture students & designers, and those with experience in land planning are encouraged to participate.

BUSH REGENERATION POD
Salt Water Creek forms the eastern boundary of garden site. The riparian zone is dominated by camphor laurel and umbrella trees, privot and a wide variety of other environmental weeds. We have committed to restoring the creek edge to local native vegetation using non-chemical, organic methods. Contact: Caspar Brace and Dave Rowlins. Related Posts.
EVENTS POD
With solstice celebrations, harvest festivals, family picnics, pizza nights (baked in our cob oven) and community education workshops in all things environmental, our events calendar will be exhilarating. To add your ideas and energy contact Jacquelina on 0425 353 350. Related Posts
