Growing Methods

Waiutuutu Community Garden utilises permaculture and organic growing methods. This means food production in the garden is becoming more sustainable no pesticides or chemical fertilisers are used, and there is an emphasis on creating a self-supporting ecosystem and using natural processes. This produces healthier food and is better for the environment.
