Manly Vale Community Garden

Unlike other community gardens that are restricted and fenced off, this one on the Northern Beaches is open for everyone. Sure, it’s small, but you can go there at any time, take the kids and a picnic, and be surrounded by leafy garden beds. It’s planted in a beautiful, unique circular pattern. They hold regular events, such as gardening demonstrations, crop swaps, and honey tastings, which they post on their Facebook page. It’s a great way to meet like-minded people and pick up a few tips.
