FAIR FOOD
Growing food. Connecting people. Nourishing communities.
At Pocket City Farms, we're working towards a fairer and more sustainable food system, right here in the heart of Sydney. Through regenerative farming, community partnerships and food sharing, we're bringing people closer to where their food comes from and making good food more accessible to everyone.
FRESH FROM OUR FARM
Locally grown, thoughtfully shared.
Our urban farm in Camperdown grows a seasonal variety of fresh vegetables, leafy greens, herbs and edible flowers using regenerative and organic farming principles.
All Pocket City Farms produce is grown in well-tested soil, without the use of synthetic sprays or fertilisers.
By choosing locally grown produce, you're not only enjoying fresh, seasonal food, you're also supporting a community-led approach to urban agriculture and food security.
community food pantry
Food for all, shared with care.
Our community Food Pantry is located on the street verge at 31A Mallett Street, Camperdown.
The pantry is stocked by amazing members of our local community and food rescue organisations, including our partners at Foodbank.
Take what you need, share what you can.
Shelf-stable food donations, such as canned goods and dried staples, are welcome at any time.
It's a simple but meaningful way to care for one another and support our local community.
COMMUNITY FOOD FOREST
A little forest with a big purpose.
Along Mallett Street, our Community Food Forest is a living example of what happens when we rethink how urban spaces can be used to grow and share food.
Inspired by natural forest ecosystems, the food forest brings together fruit trees, edible shrubs, herbs, groundcovers and climbing plants. These different layers work together to create a diverse, productive and resilient growing environment.
Here you can discover edible plants such as finger limes, lemons, strawberry guavas, figs, lemongrass, lemon myrtle, nasturtiums and many more.
And the best part? The food is free for the community to enjoy.
Our food forest is based on the principle of fair sharing. Everyone is welcome to harvest what's ready, while taking only what they need and leaving enough for others.
The space is cared for by Pocket City Farms and our dedicated community volunteers, primarily on Saturday mornings, helping to create a greener, more connected and food-secure city.
Would you like to get involved? Join our Saturday Volunteer Sessions and help us care for this special community space!
GROWING A FAIRER FOOD SYSTEM, TOGETHER
At Pocket City Farms, food is about more than what ends up on our plates.
It's about caring for the soil, reducing food waste, sharing knowledge, building relationships and creating a city where everyone has the opportunity to access fresh, nutritious food.
Every purchase, every harvest and every contribution helps us continue our work as a not-for-profit organisation, connecting people with regenerative agriculture, education and community-led food initiatives.
Eat local. Connect with the planet. Support the community.
