Local Food Projects
Building on Campbelltown’s significant and proud market gardening history, Campbelltown Local Food Projects were established in 2014. The three initial projects included the Campbelltown Produce Swap, Athelstone Community Garden and the Campbelltown Community Orchard. The Campbelltown Fruit Crew was established later in 2017. These projects responded to local concerns about healthy eating, food miles and climate change.
Strong community engagement and grassroots interaction has led the direction of these projects and a community development approach continues to inform and shape how the projects develop and evolve.
