Volunteering at FERN

FERN is alive with activity and excitement... so many things are coming together now and FERN is truly an inspirational organisation to be involved in...We are truly becoming the organisation we envisaged.

As a volunteer-run organisation we are always seeking new talent to keep our engines running. You may want to get involved for many reasons including a passion for sustainability, or an opportunity to develop and share knowledge or to make friends. Whatever you have to offer, we encourage you to contact us. FERN is currently seeking volunteers for many opportunities both on site and behind the scenes.

On Site:
  • Every Sunday from 9am to 11am FERN is open for community gardening. You are welcome to participate how ever you would like, however our weekly operations may include soil preparation, planting, watering, harvesting, composting and any other site maintenance. If you are interested please make yourself known on site to other volunteers in the garden or send an email expressing your interest to info [at] fern [dot] org [dot] au
  • On the first Saturday of every month (In January 2011 it will be the second Saturday (the 8th)) the FERN bike collective hold a free bike workshop, where people can come down and fix/maintain their bikes, build new ones, or help out others. We also fix up new bikes to be sold to raise money for FERN. Volunteers to help out with organisation, or who just want to share their mad bike-fixin' skillz are always welcome - contact info [at] fern [dot] org [dot] au or join the FERN Bike Collective facebook group! :)
