Do you want to grow your own fresh food, but don’t have access to your own garden plot?

Northey Street City Farm’s Allotment Gardens are the perfect opportunity to get started.  Grow your own organic food, learn from others and share in this wonderful inner-city community.

The allotment beds are 1m x 4.5m and can be hired for an annual fee (below) plus a $70 refundable bond (conditions apply).  

Apply for a NSCF allotment

To apply for an allotment, please read the NSCF Allotment Guidelines which you can access HERE.

We have a number of allotments available free of charge for First Nations people – please email edufarm.mgr@nscf.org.au if you are interested in these.

Allotment fees (annual):

Health Care Card / Concession: $208 ( $4 per week) | General / Organisation: $312 ($6 per week).

NSCF membership

We encourage allotment holders to become NSCF Members, though this is optional. NSCF Members receive a 10% discount on purchases from the City Farm Nursery, the convenient place to buy all your allotment needs like seedlings, mulch, and soil amendment. Nursery staff can also provide a wealth of information and advice, or for more in-depth information on gardening and many other topics attend one of our workshops or courses.
