Truly an original! Thanks Jane!❤️Quite inspirational-Feels like one big productive gardening family. What a wonderful tour of possibilities, generosity and community.
Hi Jane. Just found this video from 2 yrs ago. I'm a 72 year old Grannie from the hills. We have a 1/4 acre block in a 30 year old subdivision. Not a blade of lawn here! The fruit trees start from my front boundary and work their way up the hill. There are pergolas around the house supporting grapevines, kiwi fruit vines and passionfruit. We have a fenced specialized veggie garden, chook yard and plenty of berries too.
My partner lives on a similar street further to the West side of the CBD. We often comment on how sad the area has become since COVID, this could be the perfect revival. Thanks so much for sharing.
I love this, thanks for sharing, I'd love to check out your street some day when I'm down your way. I have a park/reserve right opposite my house and a walking trail at the back of my house and I've always wondered if the local council would allow me to plant some fruit trees there. I think I will try to do that now at some point once I've finished the food forest in my yard.
Love it! Still working on my own garden but I've got my eye on the small park next door. Have plans for using the verge as a shared space for those who walk by to the park.
Isn't it necessary to get permission from your local council to plant things on verges? I can't imagine my council ( tea tree gully ) allowing this. They'd probably just rip out anything that just appeared on the verge 😬.
This made my heart so happy. Such an inspiration.
We need more people like you!

Sorry. Pressed wrong spot. Just wanted to congratulate you for such community minded work. And your council's attitude is great too.

Wow Jane - what an inspiration! So many great ideas 😀. Can you pass on the contact details for your pruner please 😁 ?
