This is an excellent spot to stroll and sample the increasing number of goodies. Meetings are held so you can learn about bees, kumara growing, food growing. Very friendly place to visit. Has a food stand so you can donate your extra food or help yourself to donations. Thank you for this lovely place.

Thank you Garth...
At the food forest we want it to be the go to place to learn about food..how to grow, cook, forage...
Next workshop will be about foraging for mushrooms, which ones are safe to eat, how to identify, we plan to cook what we have found so you taste the difference each type of mushroom...
What classes would you like to see us organise?
