About Onehunga Peoples Garden

Onehunga Peoples Garden is a community garden at 64 Arthur Street in Onehunga, Auckland, run by a not-for-profit incorporated society. Since 2013, local volunteers have removed rubbish, planted natives, managed weeds and restored the waterways, to repair the habitat for native birds and other wildlife. The garden also promotes the eco-science and history of the site.

Working bees are held on the third Sunday of each month from 9am to 11am, except in January, August and December. Individuals and groups can book a special working bee or look after a part of the garden on a regular basis, by emailing onehungapeoplesgarden@gmail.com. A mailing list gives news of working bees and other events, and the website has a timeline of the garden's progress since its first planting day in 2015.
