Are you a keen gardener looking for a garden? Pine Rivers Neighbourhood Centre has produced a directory for volunteers looking for volunteering opportunities in the Moreton Bay Council area. Volunteering for environmental projects, including community gardens, is one of the areas highlighted in the guide.

The guide can be downloaded from the Pine Rivers Neighbourhood Centre website at www.prnc.org.au, but a summary is given here.

Several organisations have ongoing garden, nursery and environmental projects. They include:

• Bribie Island Environmental Protection Association
• Bushcare
• Caboolture Regional Environmental Centre (CREEC)
• Friends of CREEC
• Friends of Redcliffe Botanic Gardens
• Grow, Cook, Eat - Kurwongba
• Kumbartcho Sanctuary
• Osprey House
• Pine Rivers Catchment Association

Not listed, but also worth approaching are:

• Redcliffe Community Association Garden
• Sandgate PCYC community garden

It is always worth checking with local churches and schools as well, as they are often contemplating gardens, but need volunteers to get started.
