Discover Urban Edible Gardens 

A Fundraising event Growing Food SuStainability In Victoria 

Thank you for joining us 

See you next time

at our Fundraising Tour, Growing Food Sustainability In Victoria 

Food for you, Me, The Birds & THe Bees 

Growing (or raising!) food in your yard is easier than you think, especially here in the Garden City! See what your neighbours are cultivating in everything from compact containers to sprawling garden beds, learn about perennial produce, the needs of native pollinators, composting and rainwater collection, keeping bees or chickens in the city, and what you can grow year-round.

Discover an incredible variety of creative food gardens in our community with our self guided tour

Another Year, another amazing tour 

The 2026 Victoria Urban Food Garden Tour was a fantastic day of gardens, inspiration, and connection! Over 300 visitors explored 11 unique urban food gardens across Victoria, discovering creative ways to grow food within city limits. From established gardens cultivated over decades to newer spaces transformed in just a few years, every stop offered something different.

 

We were thrilled by the enthusiasm of our visitors and grateful to our generous garden hosts, volunteers, and sponsors. 

"Wow Wow Wow.... Make sure you write that down in all caps" 

Our 2026 Goal is 

To Raise as much money for food Security as we can 

Each year we partner with an organization doing the important work of suppling food security in our community. In the past we've raised money for The Rainbow Kitchen, and for the 1Up Single Parent Resource Centre. We look forward to announcing the 2026 beneficiary soon!
