Calling all gardening enthusiasts - no experience required!
We will work together to restore the backyard of three families affected by the 2022 Maribyrnong floods.
We are looking for people to join our Let’s Reconnect: Gardening Working Bee for daily gardening session in Maribyrnong on 11 May, 1 June and 23 June. We will share the garden location with attendees a few days before each working bee.

The daily sessions will include a gardening education workshop with My Smart Garden and a shared lunch.
