In the heart of Proserpine, The Proserpine Community Centre are turning soil and sowing seeds not just in garden beds, but into community spirit as well.
Every Monday afternoon from 3pm to 5pm the Proserpine Community Garden welcomes locals of all ages to join in and get hands on in the garden.
The Proserpine Community Centre encourage everyone to get their hands dirty building garden beds, planting fruit and veges, mowing lawns, weeding, learning about growing, and enjoying some good company for a couple of hours.
What makes the garden special is its open arms and inclusive atmosphere. A mix of experienced gardeners and enthusiastic beginners work side-by-side, sharing knowledge, swapping stories, and lending a helping hand.
The Proserpine Community said they’d love to see even more young people turn up.
“We would really love to get our next generations involved and show them how to grow their own food,” they said.
“Some of us are experienced and some of us are newbies but we learn from each other and work together.”
Organisers hope more families will take the opportunity to get involved, learn valuable skills, and enjoy quality time outdoors.
“It’s a great way to get outside, do something worthwhile and meet new friends of all ages.”
In true community spirit, all the produce grown is given away for free. Whether you're looking to learn a little, share a little, or just enjoy some fresh air and friendly faces, the Proserpine Community Garden welcomes you.
