It's hard to
believe a year has passed since the opening of Cairns Community Garden – and
how things have changed! Visitors on their way to the library can't miss the location,
thanks to the huge sign organized by the Department of Tropical Health and
Medicine.

| The vision begins |
The past twelve months have been packed with picnics, market days and workshops, including ‘Growing relationships with PNG food’, gardening with wicking beds, companion planting and making food gardens from pallets. Don’t miss the Really Big Garden Feast on Saturday, 21 October and the next Garden Fun Day on Tuesday, 24 October.
