The Garden
The gardens are on a site at the Environmental Technology Centre on the eastern side of Murdoch University campus in Perth, Western Australia. There we produce vegetables and herbs fruit in communal garden beds and wicking beds. We also tend fruit and nut orchards.
We have a regular stall at university market days, where we sell our produce and encourage people to grow their own food.

We are a non-profit, independent, community organisation of volunteers - students, staff and local residents of Murdoch. Murdoch Community garden Inc was registered (under the state Associations Incorporation Act 1987) in 2013. It operates with the support of the university and the Student Guild.
