Stroll through the 'friendship gates' of the Lower Lonsdale Community Gardens, located next to the North Shore Neighbourhood House, a local community centre. Built in June 2004, this garden is host to almost 50 community garden plots for growing vegetables and flowers. Each plot is maintained by nearby residents from the surrounding dense urban environment of Lower Lonsdale.
The garden provides a respite as well as opportunities for reconnecting with nature, not to mention the fresh vegetables the gardeners get to harvest for all their hard work.
