SPONSORSHIPS
Current Projects
Oaklands Street Community Gardens Inc All Abilities Access Garden Beds Project
This project commenced in September 2022 and aims to provide garden beds that are inclusive of all disabilities. Timber frames for the garden beds have been completed, and we are now progressing with the wicking structures.
Community Composting
This project aims to use spent coffee grounds provided by local cafes for garden compost. As compost, the grounds can be recycled into a valuable soil amendment to enable the growth of fresh fruit and vegetables. The success of this project relies on volunteers regularly seeking out and picking up spent coffee beans from our local cafes. Please note, due to the overwhelming generosity of our local cafes, we are unable to accept any further coffee ground donations.
