French Rd Community Garden

The French Rd Community Garden is a group of keen amateur gardeners who got together in mid-2024 to form a community garden based in grounds of the Wangi Uniting Church at 3 French Rd, Wangi.  The group is composed of anyone in our local community who is interested - it is not limited to church members.

In October 2024, we were successful in getting a grant from the Hunter Presbytery of Uniting church, which will provide funds to get the garden going.  We have purchased wicking beds for our gardens, and are installing and planting them at the front of the church and at the back.  See photos below for progress.

Our working days are Thursdays and Saturdays 9am to 11am (listed in the Activities Calendar on this website here

Saturday  May 31st - Lake Mac Crop swap will replace our usual French Road Community Garden time.  From 11am there will be a workshop on Vegetable Gardening 101 held by Purple Pear Farm.  We hope to swap and sell plants and provide morning tea on this day.  We would appreciate support from everyone especially those people who can cook scones or other morning tea goodies.
