Community School Garden Initiative

The Need: In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in organic, home grown food. There is awareness that as a ferry dependent community, we have a particular need to ensure a degree of local food sovereignty and independence. A number of different groups on the Sunshine Coast focus on food security and food sustainability issues.

Location: The garden space is located on a level site, approximately 1/6 acre in size, adjacent to Roberts Creek Community Elementary School playground on School District (SD) 46 property. Members of the community and students of RC Elementary School will transform the property from an empty lot dominated by invasive species, into a vibrant community gathering space for teaching and demonstrating a variety of gardening activities.
