Grey Lynn Community Garden

The Grey Lynn Community Gardens are nestled in the Saint Columba Church grounds in the heart of Grey Lynn. It is a Living Community Trust Project that began in 2000. The Saint Columba Church and Community have provided a safe and highly supportive space for the Community Gardens to grow.

The intention of this Garden is for it to be a place where people can build a sense of community and connection with the earth and seasons. Permaculture and organic gardening are the main approaches applied in the garden. We have about 14 allotted areas where members tend and are guardians of ‘their’ plot but we also have communal areas within which we all share gardening activities.

We are very open to new members and invite people to enjoy and learn more about gardening by coming along to our Sunday ‘Growing Together’ gatherings to meet us and have a look at our gardens.. ‘Growing Together’ Sunday afternoons times are 5pm~8pm in Summer, 2pm~4pm in winter and 4pm~6pm in Spring and Autumn.
