Grow Local

How It Works

Grow Local is a collaborative initiative between the Department of Planning and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.

This web page hosts details of sites which are knowingly available for agricultural purposes.

The Department of Planning will connect people interested in pursuing farming opportunities with landowners willing to have their land farmed. Whilst the Department of Planning can facilitate connections between landowners and farmers, it will not participate in or manage private agreements.

Potential benefits of utilising your land for farming

  • Rental Income
  • Enhanced food security for you and the wider island
  • Support healthy living through boosting the availability of fresh, locally grown produce
  • Cost savings through growing your own food and/or obtaining produce from the farming operation
