Where to Go

We had a fun and creative morning in the garden this morning making our directional pole. Steered by Amanda, the pole is now a functional and beautiful part of the garden. Thanks all :)

Plant Up Day

Just over 50 community members came along to be part of the first planting day for The Hive Community Garden. On a glorious sun filled Sunday, community members got down and dirty and together planted a beautiful array of plants. Citrus, salad greens, strawberries, blueberries, tamarillos, capsicums, tomatoes, peas, edible flowers and heaps of herbs to name a few.
Wow...the garden is full of goodness!
Soup was served and garlic bread cooked in our beautiful cob and the sharing of food has begun.
Thankyou to everyone that came along, generously donated plants and took the time to grow community. May the garden grow and grow and grow....................
Thanks everyone :)

First pizza night

The Hive Community Garden had its first pizza night on Friday 30th May. This little event was put on for the garden crew by the garden crew, to celebrate how far we have come and cook on the cob oven for the very first time..........................exciting!!!
Garden members shared a roaring good time, the cob worked a treat and the many pizzas tasted darn fine.
A big shout out to Joe for supplying the delicious pizza dough, bringing some extra lights and steering the making and cooking process. Thankyou Joe..........awesome stuff :)
Many community nights will follow................
