In late 2019 a group of local residents got excited by the potential for a parcel of vacant land (site of the old tennis courts at Croxton Railway Station) to be repurposed as a beautiful, productive garden for the community. We incorporated as a not-for-profit and began negotiations with VicTrack to obtain a lease. Fast forward to 2022 and we still need your help. We have big dreams to be a food-producing and sharing, safe community hub for learning and supporting everyone during difficult global times.

Our vision is for fresh, organic produce, grown in water-conserving wicking beds, by the local community, for the local community. Our aim is to be inclusive of all community members, young and old and of all backgrounds and abilities. During the COVID lockdown isolation and stress, the desire for this communal, life-affirming activity became all the stronger.

Now, the time has come to sign the lease and begin! 

In order to get going, we need your help. Croxton Community Garden needs financial support for our initial costs, to establish our dream.

Your support will allow us to get gardening, supporting the community and the environment, and we will be so grateful. We welcome you to visit us.
