Saturdays Gardening Bee

Our Group’s first gardening venture last year was to establish a herb garden along the southern boundary of the Bocce court next to the Railway Station Neighbourhood House in Solly Avenue, Princes Hill.  The garden has established well but needed renovating with new plants and mulch.  We placed sleepers along the Southern edge of the bed to minimise the invasion of kikuyu.

We had a good roll-up at the working bee on 26 June and and another on 17 July. We made good progress in renovating the herb bed, as well as a bit of maintenance on surrounding trees – see attached photos.

Hopefully the recent rains will help this little garden to flourish and provide fresh herbs to local residents.
