Maroubra
Community Garden
Working Bees
Members are welcome to work in the garden any day or time.
Our working bees are usually on every Sunday from 9am to noon.
Community Events
Maroubra Community Garden was established to provide a shared space for members of the local community to come together and share in the joy of gardening. We offer a variety of workshops throughout the year, usually on the last Sunday of the month. These workshops are run by volunteers who have years of industry experience, and are dedicated to teaching people about growing their own food.
This is an open and safe space for everyone, regardless of experience or ability. We welcome all members of the community to come and share in the knowledge and love of gardening.
Workshops are normally scheduled last Sunday of each Month, please follow our Facebook page for upcoming event details.
