The Inspiration Garden is situated next to the Seven Hills bushland at Morningside. It began as a result of a dream to create a place where all are welcome to make friends and learn about sustainable lifestyles and permaculture and to inspire others towards a more sustainable and fulfilling partnership with our environment.

The garden was launched on 10/10/10 as a 350.org event which encouraged many volunteers from around Brisbane to come and assist. Permablitz organised the permaculture design consultant and provided volunteers to join in on the day to begin the initial work required. The Garden has gained support from Transition East and Brisbane Organic Growers Inc. Bruce Ham from BOGI agreed to attend on the day and assist with soil testing and advice. Neighbours pitched in as well creating plenty of opportunity to strengthen friendships.

Since this time we have held several events and there have been about 80 people attend these events at one time or another, as well as regular volunteers from the neighbourhood coming to assist for a variety of reasons and with a diversity of cultural backgrounds and differing levels of gardening experience. The owners have a long term goal to continue this project as a community building project for sustainability and to inspire others about food security for many years to come.
