Bulleke-bek Park Community Garden (Brunswick)

The Bulleke-bek Park Community Garden is open to the public and membership is free.

The garden, which was initially planted in 2020, is located in the Bulleke-Bek park near Anstey station. The garden is designed as a space for the many local people who live in apartments to cultivate a little bit of green. It comprises around six wicking beds and a food forest. The harvest is for anyone and everyone in the community.

The community group meet once a month to discuss planting and projects, to share a cup of tea or coffee and the results of their home baking projects - see their Facebook page for dates and times.

Folks often garden or harvest between meetings, and their garden aspirations include: enjoying the park; linking up with other community groups; growing their gardening knowledge; engaging with council to understand and provide feedback about food security and community gardening in Brunswick; imagining a composting future for their high-density community; and what their food forest might look like in a few years' time.
