The first I knew of Ross Island Food Forest was an invitation from a facebook group, Food for Thought Townsville:
Simon posted in the Permaculture Townsville group last week “The Ross Island Food Forest on the corner of First Avenue and 5th Street was opened in 1995 by Permaculture Townsville and the TCC. It ended up being all trees so not your vege patch type community garden but after nearly 30 years it’s still chugging away doing its foresty business.
If anyone wants a tour, send me a message and we’ll work something out. Even get a group together…..” and I thought I’d take him up on his offer! Meet on the corner of First Avenue and Fifth Street in Railway Estate.
