Mackie Lane Community Garden


Mosman Community Gardeners are hoping to establish a new community garden in Mackie Lane next to the Midas Car centre. The land is owned by Ausgrid and leased to Mosman Council. MCG, Mosman Council and Ausgrid have signed a sub license memorandum that gives MCG, as invitees of the Council, permission to use an 8-metre strip along Mackie Lane.  The Council and Ausgrid have agreed to jointly pay to fence this area. Mosman Council has called for tenders. We are hoping work will commence in September.  The Council has offered to install water to garden. 

MCG has made a comprehensive proposal  to Mosman Council to manage the community garden and we have asked some modest  financial assistance for building the garden beds.  

We are now inviting community garden supporters to register their interest with MCG to join Mosman Community Gardeners and the Mackie Lane Community Garden.
