The idea for a community garden in Lennox Head was born in 2013 with a small group of motivated local volunteers who were interested in promoting the principles of community spirit, environmental sustainability and good health. The group was officially incorporated in 2015. In 2016, a suburban plot of land was identified within what is known as Ocean Breeze Reserve, and a formal design was prepared by Geoff Lawton and the team from the Permaculture Research Institute.
