Grow Free 3231
At the driveway of St Aidan’s Aireys Inlet, there’s a Grow Free cart.
Grow Free is a community initiative for sharing food, whose motto is Take What You Need, Share What You Can.
There are carts in various locations across Australia, and in Aireys Inlet a group of locals have joined the movement working together to make life for future generations full of good health and abundance. By using food as a medium, people are connecting with their community and with this planet. Just the simple act of growing our own food and giving it freely to someone else, without need for reciprocation or acknowledgment, can not only be a revolutionary act, but also one that heals.
Our world desperately needs for us to change our ways: the foundations of our culture. There’s only ever us, we’re all in this together, lets create an abundant world of good food and good health.
Local gardeners who often have a surplus of produce leave goods at the stall and people in need of it help themselves. People also leave jams and preserves made with surplus produce. There’s a private Facebook Group used for locals to notify others about drop offs of new produce and goods.
The stall was located behind the Lighthouse Tea Rooms and St Aidan’s Aireys Inlet is happy to be the stall’s new home.
