Community Garden on its way to Mosman

The next topic in this rolling assignment is to write about somthing happening in my area....

And after a bit of snooping around, I have found out that Mosman, the suburb where I live, may soon have a community garden.

The idea was proposed by Lyn Morehen, a local horticulturalist and president of Mosman Home Gardeners Society.

The proposal is in its early stages and this week the Mayor of Mosman, Denise Wilton attended a meeting with the Mosman Home Gardeners Society and listened to a presentation by John Brandenburg. Mr Brandenburg started one of Australia's first community gardens in 1978.

Community gardens can be found around Australia and many are linked through a national network Australian City Farms and Community Gardens Network.
