The Goody Patch

The Goody Patch is a community garden located at 12 Surrey Street, Goodwood. The land is owned by Goodwood Primary School and managed by the school, Unley Council and community members. The Goody Patch is turning 10 years old and this weekend members are celebrating with a party at the patch, Saturday 24th October 12-2 pm.

The Goody Patch has grown over the years, starting with a small area between one of the two tennis courts and the street. With Goodwood Primary School Council support, Unley Council grants and fantastic community participation, it has grown to include one of the two tennis courts (one that was very badly cracked with weeds growing through the asphalt). It is a beautiful place to visit, with community art, places to sit and contemplate as well as edible and non-edible plants to enjoy. You can even taste some of the produce from edible garden plots, marked 'community'.
