- The Canberra Organic Growers have a number (5?) of gardens spread over canberra.
- They are on "unused" local govt land and are run and financed by members of
- COGS. They have been going for a number of years. We became involved in 1988
- and have found it a great way to get experience gardening, meet people and
- supplement to veges ;-)

- I could provide more infor if you want to email me
