Jeparit Communal Garden

Posted on

The Jeparit Communal Garden has recently formed and with the power of a handful of people are making terrific headway in getting established. I was invited to advise and help direct them through what can be at time a minefield of rules and regulations to beginner gardeners.

These innitial pix show the truely greenfield site it was. Given to them by the owner in Melbourne for a dollar for 99 years the site is two house blocks with a frontage of almost 80 m by 100 m deep.

In honor of the owner the gate was decorated with this handmade sign.
