Gardenup offers produce for sale from the farm shop on the property, through weekly orders which you can place by email each week before Sunday night - gardenup@westnet.com.au Why is Gardenup called a community farm? Gardenup has an open garden on a regular basis for volunteer groups. People of all ages and background can join us for some gardening, a cup of tea and a chat. Further we organise workshops for children and adults. The garden gates stand wide open for all sorts of community orientated projects. We run workshops in a joint project between Gardenup and the Boyup Brook Telecentre, the Blackwood Basin Group and the Seed Saver's group. We source produce from Gardenup's own garden, eggs from Boyup Chook and Certified Organic vegetables from farms in this region. In this way we avoid unnecessary road and airmiles and we promote locally grown food, helping local farmers. We only source Certified Biodynamic and Certified Organic.
