Community Garden

Strathfield Council’s community garden is located at Laker Reserve, Elva Street, Strathfield.

Community gardens enable community members, especially those without access to gardening space, to be actively involved in growing vegetables, fruit and herbs. A community garden space is also a place to meet and learn.

Being involved in a community garden can be a great way to enjoy the outdoors, grow your own healthy food for very little cost and become involved in your community.

The Strathfield Community Garden is now open for the community and is looking for new members. All are welcome to join.

Opens weekly on Thursdays from 3pm – 5:30pm, commencing Thursday 29 February 2024

Once a month on a Saturday, we will have Community Garden BBQ’s and gardening educational sessions with council for registered members.
