Food – Kitchen Gardeners’ Society

TTG Kitchen Gardeners’ Society

Transition Town Guildford’s Kitchen Gardeners’ Society is a community group based in Guildford, Western Australia and surrounding suburbs. Our aim is to encourage people to take positive action towards building a more resilient community as a response to the challenges of climate change, peak oil and economic uncertainty, by producing their own food at home.

We meet monthly in members’ gardens to share experiences, plants and tools and participate in garden-related activities, providing each other with support and encouragement to grow our own fruit and vegetables, preserve crops, and keep small livestock such as poultry.

If you want to find out more or are keen to attend, please contact Elizabeth at guildfordkitchengardeners@gmail.com Or 0417 718 051
