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 celebrated 10 years onsite and all our orchard in the ground and starting to produce delicious harvests…and we negotiated 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 below and explore this website or Facebook (White Gum Valley Community Orchard).

Enjoy Saturday Sunsets in March in the Orchard
Come down to the Orchard on a Satuday night in March for dinner, a drink, a chat or just a wander through the fruit trees. Orchard Crew will be on-site winding down, sharing some food and having a catch up. If you’ve ever wanted to find out which tree is which (or any other query) this is your chance. An easy community catch up to make and sustain local connections.
