The primary focus of the Rockingham City Community Garden group is:
- To be a cohesive group of community members who preserve, enhance and promote the Rockingham City Community Garden.
- To provide a place for community members to gather and garden together.
- To provide a community garden space where there is creativity, community pride and inclusion of all community members.
- To educate the community on growing food to eat, and healthy lifestyle options.
- To educate the community on sustainability and organic garden practices, and
- To provide a strong and independent voice promoting community spirit and cooperation.
Our Community Garden Group has formed strong relationships with the Hillman Residents Association, Hillman Primary School, Department of Health, Rockingham Volunteer Resource Centre, Rockingham Youth Station, RUAH Rockingham, Volunteer Task Force, Disability Services Commission, Malibu School, Challenger TAFE, Herb Society, Active Foundation, Rockingham Garden Club, Warnbro and Waikiki Community and Family Centres and Great Gardens WA.
We have seen a great need for a community garden space such as this and have had had a lot of positive feedback by the local community in many different ways. We see the benefits’ to the local and wider community extending beyond just a garden to include a space for craft groups, garden workshops school education and community spirit and growth.
