The Banyo Verge Garden Project, our ACF Community Brisbane Northside group nature project, and the Shady Lanes Project, all aim to encourage council-planted street trees supported by resident-planted native verge gardens that comply with the local council guidelines.
Come along to this talk about the many reasons this is the best planting option for cooling our cities, increasing biodiversity, and getting on with your neighbours.
Meeting Format:
- Discussion: Brisbane City Council guidelines, why we need more street trees, why local native plants, and choosing what to plant
- Brief updates on the project
- Q&A, general discussion
Some native plants will be on display.
Afternoon tea and coffee will be provided.
