Support SWAMP Central Coast Community Garden for 2024

We are a team of passionate and committed people here on the Central Coast driven to create a space to grow food together for community, to inspire the joy of growing your own food, being part of something bigger than ourselves, creating a garden of belonging and purpose.

This campaign is to help us raise funds for our community garden in Tuggerah which is located within the beautiful Central Coast Wetlands.

Our work is all done on a voluntary basis with the help of our volunteers, groups and guests.

We rely solely on funding, donations, sponsorships and mainly in kind hours and contributions.

This year we hope to build a small structure off our work shed to capture water for our water tank. The structure will also support solar panels to help us be fully self-sustainable energy wise. This will enable us to set up an irrigation system for our nursery powered by an electric pump and also enable us to charge small gardening tools.

Your support would transform our garden to a fully functioning community garden where we can grow even more food for community, provide seedlings to community, deliver project based workshops and showcase a sustainable gardening model for other gardens and urban gardens around energy efficient practices.

Should any surplus funds be raised they will be used to help finance our public liability insurance premium and site occupation licence fee and to purchasing seeds, seedlings, composts, manures, soils and mulch to keep the garden flourishing for the rest of the year.
