Growing gardens that grow community.
An urban farm on a Kingsville corner, growing cut flowers, gardens and gardeners across the west.
† Flower miles refers to the total distance cut flowers travel from the farm to the final customer. Metric versus imperial units aside, it is adapted from ‘food miles’, and is useful in the environmental impact assessments of the cut flower industry.
Three ways to grow
Flowers, gardens and teaching, all grown from the corner. Underpinned by care for our community, science-led, and delivered with rigour and kindness for our people and environment.
Cut flowers, grown
just around the corner
Seasonal arrangements and seasonal subscriptions, cut the morning they go out.
Gardens cared for
from the roots up.
Garden design, soil rehabilitation and pesticide-free maintenance across the inner west.
Growing the next
generation of gardeners
Free schools growing program, small group school holiday workshops, and 1:1 growing sessions for neurodivergent kids.
The Cut from The Corner
Something to grow these holidays.
Two small workshops in a working flower farm in Melbourne’s inner west, where children spend a morning making things with their hands and go home calmer than they arrived.
Monday 21, Tuesday 22 and Wednesday 23 September
Tuesday 29 and Wednesday 30 September, and Friday 2 October
Places are limited to four children per session, so they go quickly.
