Verge And Community Gardens - K Colls City Farm And P Wedell COGS - 2020 - 06 - 12 - BTL - a podcast by 2XX Behind the Lines and Align in the Sound teams

As suburban backyards shrink and green space becomes a
premium, even as we are encouraged to grow, to compost and
to reduce waste, it makes no sense to keep nature strips as no-
go zones, and to insist on watering hungry strips of lawn with
much of the run off ending up in the storm water system. The
response has been a verge and community garden revolution!
Especially since COVID with a surge of renewed interest in
gardening, It’s one of those ideas that is now capturing the
public’s imagination and we are starting to see more and more
street verge and community gardens appearing, many of them
growing food.
Joining us via phone this morning to chat about transforming
your verge and creating organic community gardens are Keith
Colls from Canberra City Farm, and Peter Weddell from Canberra Organic Growers Society.
