Welcome to the Edible Gardens Festival – the Margaret River region’s annual sustainability and food growing festival, returning in 2025 for the May 24&25 weekend! This not-for-profit event is aimed at connecting community and empowering you with knowledge and inspiration to get your hands dirty, grow your own food, live lighter on the planet, and have fun in the process.

OPEN GARDENS:

You can either grab a Saturday or a Sunday day ticket for $20 (or one of each)! On Saturday, there are 3 varied open edible gardens on the program for you to tour between 9am and 1pm, meet the gardeners and hear all about their gardening journey, tips and techniques. Don't miss the Gardening Demonstrations at each garden too! A different set of 3 gardens will be open on Sunday, also from 9am-1pm with their own unique Garden Demonstrations.

These are all real-life, practical, authentic gardens and gardeners taking care of their soil and producing abundance. Find out more about the gardens and garden demonstrations in the 2025 Edible Gardens Festival Program. Kids under 16 are free (but make sure you reserve kids ticket when booking. Please note, kids tickets are limited).

WORKSHOPS:

For even deeper learning, we’ve added 6 Saturday afternoon workshops and 4 Sunday afternoon workshops. These are each ticketed separately at $25 per person. They run for 90 minutes with limited class size and expert local teachers. Find out more about them in the 2025 Edible Gardens Festival Program.

Our friends at Margaret River Mitre 10 are offering all ticket holders 20 per cent of all plants for the week after the Edible Gardens Festival (May 26-June 1 inclusive). Simply show your festival ticket at the counter when purchasing your potted plants, fruit trees or veg seedlings!
