We were delighted to support the wonderful work that Green Connect do in our community by funding their brand new Community Garden at the entrance to their famous farm in Warrawong, something that they’ve wanted to do for a while.
“What we have achieved at the farm in the last year is extraordinary and it will change the lives of all the young people and former refugees who start their work lives here,” Green Connect’s General Manager Kylie Flament.
“It takes a village to make things like this happen, and we couldn’t have done it without your financial support.”
Check it out if you haven’t already – there are lots of excellent activities coming up, including Farm Tours during the school holidays.

We continue to donate mulch to the Green Connect gardens, and to others who request it delivered to their home, who in turn donate to another excellent local organisation Need a Feed via our ‘Mulch for More‘ program, the success of which we are also very proud of.
