Good Advice on Verge Planting
Most Transition initiatives I know of in our region place food security high on their priority list and are keen to push the envelope in their area for more community gardens and edible street verge plantings. Finding suitable spaces for community gardens and creating the necessary community organisation to build and manage the garden has some challenges and takes some time, so verge planting presents as an attractive supplementary or alternative project. However, there are some practical and civic issues to be dealt with if they are to be facilitated and supported by local government authorities
Our colleagues and good friends at the Australian City Farms and Community Gardens Nework have come up with a very useful short guide for those thinking about verge plantings in their area. You can find it on their website using the link below
