Hi locals and friends! 👋

This Saturday, October 26th, our Urban Farm will be open from noon to 6 pm (QLD) during the "Block Party on the Bay" event (which runs from 1pm – 7pm NSW).

We’d love for you to stop by and see the work we’re doing in the area. Beyond gardening, we’ve also created a space to gather, share, and strengthen our sense of community.

Find us on Dixon Street just at the top of Bay Street, but our entrance is around the corner in Scott Street.

We hope to see you this Saturday so you can learn more and enjoy this exciting project with us!

Hi community. We're in need of some star pickets. If you have any lying around that you don't need we can put them to good use. You can drop them off at the Urban Farm (on Scott street) or we're happy to come and pick them up - just message us here on facebook.
Thanks heaps! 🙂

Hello CTUF this weekend is a little all over the place for opening .
Weather unpredictable but at least the farm is getting a nice water. ☔️ It is a long weeekend in QLD and some of our volunteers are away plus the big music event 🎶 in Cooly tomorrow means an influx of up to 30,000 people . Things parking wise could get crazy. So the long and the short of it is we don’t have any specific opening times. Watch this space for any spontaneous opening time updates . Happy long weekend if you are a Qlder.
