Fabs Sydney: Erskineville

This inner Sydney suburb lives up to the village tag that the Lord Mayor of Sydney Clover Moore talks about.

Urban gardens























Erskineville Town Hall

Awesome neighbourhood near by Newtown and carries on the alternative culture. There's some great street art here.

I had a chuckle at the "urban gardens" label.
But when one looks closely, every item there is fully utilisable and neat for organic growing, from the multiple compost bins to the scarecrows.
