Grow Your Own

Great news!

A series of one day workshops are available from Saturday 10th October to Saturday 5 December. They will provide hands-on knowledge and techniques about permaculture, organic gardening and sustainable living.


These workshops are a great initiative of Foodcare NT, Lakeside Drive Community Garden & Top End Transition Towns.





  • Each workshop will include in-depth theory & discussions with practical demonstrations. The information presented in the workshops is totally top-end centric and climatically appropriate. Handouts containing detailed information and illustrations will be provided for each participant.
  • The workshops will be held at gardens and houses around Darwin that show living examples of the ideas and provide sites for practical examples. In the near future, once there are facilities in place, the Lakeside Drive Community Garden will be the ideal location for ongoing workshops and trainings. 
  • Each workshop is separate, and participants can choose which workshop(s) they would like to attend. However the workshops also run as a series and participants can attend as many workshops as they like.
