The Secret Garden
The Secret Garden & Nursery is a not-for-profit community garden
and nursery set on five beautiful acres at the University of Western
Sydney campus in Richmond, NSW. Members of the community are welcome to
use the gardens and enjoy the farmyard animals and purchase plants from
the nursery. The Secret Garden also offers training and educational
programs for the whole community in horticulture, permaculture, animal
husbandry, vegetable and fruit production and specialised engagement and
training opportunities for school children and individuals with a
disability. The therapy garden offers a safe, supportive and educational
environment where people with mental illness and other disabilities can
learn horticultural skills through the "Food for Thought" program. The
sale of plants grown in the nursery help finance this successful
project. Come along and enjoy the rambling gardens, take your pick of
our huge selection of plants, commune with the ducks, chickens, sheep,
horse, goats, pigs & rabbits or just enjoy the environment and have a
picnic.
