Community Gardens

Community Gardens are common green spaces managed by volunteers. They can be found in the heartlands, in private estates, schools, and organisations.

These gardens come in many forms, and serve a wide variety of functions. Some examples include edible gardens where the community grows a wide variety of edible plant species for self-consumption, sharing with community, or promoting food resilience; habitat-enhancing gardens where they grow plants to support local biodiversity; and ornamental gardens where they showcase expertise like orchid cultivation or bonsai growing. These gardens also support community bonding and other social activities, making them hubs for collaboration for residents, students, teachers, researchers and more.
