Joe's Connected Garden

Call Website Contact the business

Joe's Connected Garden Community garden with five adjoining properties linked by gates, about 500 varieties of fruit, small nursery with low cost plant sales to maintain them.

This is a new kind of community garden where neighbours have joined together to link their gardens and share the harvests. It is not just about growing food but creating community and fostering respect for the earth and each other. The three original gardens are lovingly tended by Joe Kielnerowski and Rosanne Parker assisted by friends, neighbours and local community gardeners and follow permaculture and organic principles. From the four gardens available on the first opening, there are now around fifteen connected at two close locations, plus some satellite gardens belonging to regular volunteers. We currently have some wonderful helpers who always go home with some plants or produce from the garden and hopefully information to enable them to set up their own gardens at home. We especially love mentoring families with young children. We also have associations with local schools who have supported us over the years and now the classes visit for sustainability and environmental education. Joe has qualifications in urban permaculture design and is occasionally available for garden design projects. In our first opening back in February 2013 nearly 1000 people came through as part of the old Open Gardens Scheme. We have since opened up five connected gardens each year for Open Gardens South Australia and once the Covid lockdown restrictions are over we would like to put on other events with an educational and conscious living focus. Please let us know what you would like! Suggestions are short courses on gardening and permaculture, film, music or meditation gatherings, discussion groups etc. There is also a small nursery in one of the gardens specialising in warm/dry climate fruits. This is simply to fund maintenance of the gardens (and to give away to our volunteers) and we have a plant sale at the open garden and then once or twice during the year that we promote on the page. We are members of the Rare Fruit Society of SA and grow a very large variety of fruit (over 500 different types) including Mediterranean, native, subtropical and exotics. We maintain an extensive fig collection of around 250 varieties and also collections of guavas and mangoes which we are trialling in response to our changing climate. For inquiries, speaking engagements, to arrange a garden club or private group, visit please call Joe on 0402 298 409 or Rosanne on 0402 140 219. Events in the garden, such as workshops and busy bees, can be seen on Facebook or AgriAdventures and booked via AgriAdventures events. Location of the gardens is Elizabeth Grove, half hour north of Adelaide, South Australia. Since we started this page right after the first Open Garden in 2013 our activities and following have grown and we intend to expand what we are doing further in the coming year or so. If you have suggestions about what activities or workshops you would like please let us know as we are very flexible. Most events are free or very low cost. As well as the original group of five gardens at Elizabeth Grove, there is now another group of six gardens a couple of kilometres away at Elizabeth East with extra activities such as beekeeping, aquaponics and poultry raising. A beautiful new indoor activity space is nearing completion which opens up the possibilities of services we can provide. This page and the associated groups are maintained by Rosanne with very occasional identified input from Joe.

GROW FREE CART COURTESY
This last week has seen an uncommonly high number of people responding to the post about free loquats and lemons. Many thousands in fact, to our amazement. So a few basic rules. The cart is open 24/7 so please be quiet when coming at night or very early morning. We have little control over how long things last there. I try to get the post up as soon as I know about the donation so there still should be fruit there for a day or two at least. After that, i would not drive too far so you don't get disappointed. This time we did get a refill but we have no control over what is left and when - it's a mutual donation system. Everything is free so take what you need and there is never any need to knock at the door. I don't live there any more and our lovely tenants do NOT want to be disturbed by people banging on their doors at all hours. This is the first time this has happened in the ten or so years we have had the cart and I am not sure why. The residents cannot help you with more fruit: if it's there, it's yours and if not, you'll have to wait until the next donation.
I cannot stress too much that the privacy and right to quiet of the residents is of paramount importance and if it becomes too much of a circus the cart will have to go which would be a great pity as it has been providing healthy food for people in the area for a very long time.
Thank you for your cooperation!

I cannot admire Fruit Share too much. Many have tried to do something similar but have not been able to getting it growing and working successfully. What's not to love about saving literally tonnes of perfectly good fruit and distributing it to the needy. They are a not for profit charity but still need funds for equipment and to run the show. I'll be having a listen into this to see if there is any other way we can help. From time to time, our Grow Free GETS A GENEROUS DONATION FROM THEM. THANK YOU!

In 2023, South Australian Brett Dunstone was inspired by an idea from fruit-sharing projects overseas: pick the fruit nobody's using and give it to people who need it. πŸ‹

Three years on, Fruit Share Adelaide has grown to more than 460 volunteers. Together they've rescued over 40,000 kilograms of produce from backyards, orchards and farms across Adelaide and the Hills, all redistributed free to local relief partners.

At our Healthy People, Healthy Planet live crowdfunding event, Brett will pitch for Fruit Share Adelaide's six-month project to recruit and equip 12 new Harvest Leaders, doubling how much fresh produce the organisation can rescue.

AL RU FARM OPEN TODAY FOR OPEN GARDENS SA
I usually only promote productive gardens but this one is very special for many reasons. Sorry about the late notice but I just saw it myself due to illness limiting my time on the computer. Its creator, the late Ruth Irving, is no longer with us, but I was thrilled to see the garden is going to be still available for the public to enjoy and what more could you ask for on a gorgeous spring day like today.
The other nice thing for we who dwell in the northern suburbs is that it is only a short drive (10 minutes from Elizabeth) whereas so many gardens are Hills/eastern suburbs which in today's high fuel prices, is a bit of a disincentive We have been several times and always enjoyed the ambience very much; it's also a gorgeous wedding venue at other times.

Al Ru is a big, bold and beautiful garden of richly planted garden rooms

1108 Fig Collection 21 different Why 21 figs? Joe planted 21 figs in a couple of circles at the gardens to show you can grow figs in a small space; in this case 6x 6 metres. So this package is not just for those of you on acreage but anyone who adores figs and has a decent sized back yard. You can prune them hard to keep them compact as they bear their main crop on new wood. Figs grow so well in our climate, taste amazing and will cost you around $40 a kilo in the shops - if you can find them. This is the bargain of the sale! Similar figs are selling for over $40 EACH in the nurseries. A selection of popular varieties plus some special rare ones you won't find elsewhere.
