Welcome to Open Gardens Victoria

Launched in 2015, Open Gardens Victoria is a volunteer-run, not-for-profit organisation that assists garden owners to open their private gardens to the public and also organises gardening and horticultural themed events. Our activities are funded by ticket sales, and each year a portion of our surplus is applied to grants under our Giving Program for horticultural projects in the fields of education, wellness, innovation, community and sustainability.

We are now an established part of the gardening scene. In this changing world, no matter how large or small the space available to us, OGV is committed to engaging and encouraging our traditional garden lovers and our younger demographic to embrace gardening, as a valuable form of creative expression and sustenance within our culture.

We also endeavour to keep our community connected to gardens with interesting new online initiatives for all via our website, Instagram and Facebook pages.

Join our team!

We are recruiting for a Head of Volunteers to join our Committee of Management and manage our wonderful volunteers. The Head of Volunteers is a critical role for the recruitment, task allocation and oversight of a large number of volunteers interested in assisting us to host garden openings and other related activities.

Find out more in the Head of Volunteers position description. Please apply by email outlining your interest, skills and experience as soon as possible. Interviews will commence in the last week of November, 2024.
