Creating a fun natural playscape, food garden and picnic grounds for Grong Grong residents, children and their friends and our many many weary travelers.
Stage one of the multi-stage plan is the community food garden - the Grong Grong Earth Garden - an open garden for community and for mny weary travellers who pull into the town for respite from the Newell Highway.
Commenced in winter 2014, the Earth Garden is already providing visitors and locals (and bugs and fairies!) with a delightful and productive space in which to seize a moment in the sunshine.
Over the next twelve months further trees and productive garden beds will be established, and a gorgeous Huff 'n' Puff Strawbale garden hut will go up.
Building of stage two of the Earth Park - the Tiny Tots Zone - commenced in 2015. The zone plan includes all natural, recyclled and upcycled play elements - a place for pretending, hiding, digging, "musicking", mud pie-ing or hanging out on a rolly polly hill.
The community Yarning Place, picnic zones, maze, WildPlay zones and RV parking will be developed and built as time, budget and materials arise.
