Our Healthy Urban Building

Preserves made in the HUB

Cooking class in the HUB

The HUB, our Healthy Urban Building, opened in 2012. We converted an old portable classroom to a low-energy multipurpose space, boasting a passive-ventilation layout, low-toxin paint and insulation made from recycled plastic bottles.

It has a registered kitchen, classroom and library, plus a worm composting toilet and rainwater capture on the roof. Solar panels help make our HUB sustainable, generating more than our share of electricity use.

Some equipment we have:

  • Large pans and pots for preserving

  • Oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridges

  • Range of utensils for different cooking tasks

  • Whiteboards for workshops


  • Our site, quarry and HUB are available for events, workshops and activities. 

    Get in touch or send an email to wcggrows@gmail.com with the details and we can discuss options.

    Pizza oven

    Outside, we have a wood fired pizza oven, built during a workshop in 2013. The flowering gum design of the mosaic was completed in 2016. It is the centre of our garden celebrations, with pizza parties a delicious highlight throughout the year.
