Kensington, VIC

Nestled at the corner of Bluestone and Serong Streets in Kensington, the Kensington Stockyard Food Garden is a vibrant community space where individuals of all ages and backgrounds come together to cultivate a diverse array of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and herbs. Operating under a shared management model and permaculture principles, the garden not only enhances local biodiversity but also fosters a strong sense of community. Members actively participate in tending to the garden, sharing its produce, and engaging in weekly workshops and monthly morning teas. A portion of the harvest is generously donated to the McCracken Street Food Pantry, supporting those in need within the community. The garden also features dedicated spaces for indigenous plants, promoting cultural appreciation and environmental stewardship. Regular events and workshops, such as mushroom cultivation and indigenous bushfood education, further enrich the community's connection to sustainable living practices.
