We are a young organisation born in August 2014 with the intention that one day locals can harvest, cook with shared recipes and then eat produce from the fruit trees they planted with their own hands. Our site is in the heart of White Gum Valley, Fremantle, adjacent to Hazel Orme Kindergarten.
In 2024 we are celebrating 10 years onsite and all our orchard in the ground and starting to produce delicious harvests. We will be negotiating another 5 year licence with City of Fremantle.
To become a member, go to signup and be part of exciting grass-roots project.
To find out more about our full vision, view our Youtube video and explore this website or Facebook (White Gum Valley Community Orchard).
