Green Connect Farm

GOOD FOR YOU AND GOOD FOR THE PLANET

We grow and sell food from out 11-acre urban permaculture farm in Warrawong NSW. Food that is good for those who grow it (fair wages and good jobs), those who eat it (healthy and organic) and good for the planet (sustainable and chemical-free).

Op shops

Giving used goods a second life

We resell donated goods to keep them out of landfill. All proceeds are invested back in the Wollongong community by creating jobs for young people and former refugees in industries that help the planet and the community. We also provide volunteering opportunities for people who want skills, experience and confidence in the workplace.

Staffing Solutions

We employ young people and former refugees

We give people who are often excluded from the workforce, particularly former refugees and young people, employment experience and support. From new staff appointments, to long term projects and few hour jobs, we strive to place the right staff in your workplace. To do this we make sure we understand your needs and up-skill and support staff in this context.
