The ANU Kitchen Garden program is a network of gardens on our Acton campus, which produces fresh, seasonal, delicious food. You can get involved by going along to one of our weekly Wednesday working bees, between 10am and 12pm.

You don't need to be a green thumb, just come along and join in growing a thriving food garden to share!
