The Volunteer Community Gardening Program will commence in October and is designed to recruit and engage volunteers in the development and maintenance of the following MMMCH garden precincts: indigenous native garden, sensory garden, permaculture kitchen garden and food forest.

Harvest Swap 

Commencing 5 October, Macedon Harvest Swap, usually located outside the Post Office, will move to the Community House on the 1st & 3rd Saturday of the month from 9.30-10.30.

 

Volunteering for the Committee of Management

The M&MMCH Committee of Management are looking for people to join the team. We are a small dedicated group looking after the House fundraising & finances, communications, maintenance, programming and events. As you can see there are many areas where volunteers can contribute to supporting the local community. In particular, our current Treasurer will be moving to the Perth Hills in early December, so the House CoM is needing to recruit a new Treasurer before then. You don’t need to be a qualified bookkeeper or accountant to perform the role (though preferred) and a full briefing and hand-over will be provided. Please contact James secretary@mmmcommunityhouse.org if you are interested and would like more information about any of the positions. If you think you might be interested in the Treasurer position, Andrew, our current Treasurer, is happy to have a chat about what is involved. treasurer@mmmcommunityhouse.org
