About the venue
St Mary’s Community Garden has become a sanctuary for those seeking connection — both with the earth and with each other. Over the last 4 years this space has transformed what was once an underutilised piece of land into a flourishing green space where people of all ages and backgrounds come together. Despite limited time availability, they've created abundant vegetable, herb, and fruit tree beds using permaculture and organic methods.
