Addison Road Community Garden
The Addison Road Community Garden is an unfenced, organic garden in the culturally diverse suburb of Marrickville.
Located in the grounds of the Addison Road Community Centre, the community garden provides opportunities to grow food locally, learn the basics of organic gardening (including propagation and seed saving), and interact with others. As well as all the vegetables growing in the garden, there are also exotic fruit trees and native frog ponds with edible water plants.
