Shara Community Garden

Shara Community Garden provides a dedicated outdoor space for residents and visitors in Brunswick Heads to engage with local food production. The garden features a variety of shared plots, fruit trees, and composting facilities designed to promote self-sufficiency and environmental stewardship. Members of the local community gather here to manage the grounds through regular working bees, ensuring the site remains productive and accessible for all participants throughout the year. It serves as a practical hub for learning about subtropical gardening techniques and soil health in a communal setting. Located a short distance from the Brunswick River, the garden offers a quiet retreat from the coastal activity of the region. The site encourages biodiversity by providing habitats for local pollinators and maintaining a diverse range of plant species. Visitors can observe the various stages of organic growth and learn about the specific varieties that thrive in the Northern Rivers climate. This facility remains an important social and educational resource for those living in Brunswick Heads who wish to participate in sustainable agriculture without needing personal land.
