Edible Gardens in Townsville
The Townsville campus supports a thriving community garden at the Rotary International College, which is available to all 七星彩开奖历史 students, staff and alumni. The garden showcases a large diversity of tropical and subtropical trees and crops, managed by TropEco in partnership with student clubs.
Using compost derived from 七星彩开奖历史 food and green waste, the garden is managed organically without the use of synthetic fertilisers.
Pest insects are managed with biological controls including lady beetles and particular wasp species which target caterpillars. As a result, you'll find a a wide range of bush tucker from all over Queensland here.
Visit and volunteer
You're welcome to visit the garden, provided you follow a few simple rules:
- Keep the gate shut to prevent nearby wallabies getting in
- Please be respectful of other gardeners and only take what you have grown, leaving plenty for others
- Wear enclosed shoes, sun-protective clothing and take any rubbish or hazardous materials with you when you leave.
Garden Site Conduct
The Community Garden Operational Guidelines (PDF, 738 KB) document provides guidance for using and managing these gardens responsibly.
Visitors must comply with the rules, procedures and processes outlined in these guidelines at all times.
