Community garden<br />

sprouts up in Burnside<br />

• By Ashleigh Monk<br />

BURNSIDERS WILL be able to lounge<br />

around and enjoy the sun in their new<br />

community garden.<br />

The Monarch Community Garden<br />

on Kendal Ave sprang to life through<br />

the combined efforts of Housing New<br />

Zealand, the Bishopdale Menzshed, Clean<br />

Up Canterbury and several working bees<br />

attended by local residents and school<br />

children.<br />

The land for the garden was donated<br />

by St Timothy’s Anglican Church in<br />

Burnside.<br />

Burnside resident Jacqui Stringfellow<br />

said the idea for a garden came after it was<br />

brought up at a Housing New Zealand<br />

meeting.<br />

“I think originally the residents thought<br />

WORKING BEE:<br />

Bishopdale<br />

Menzshed<br />

members Dave<br />

Crawford and<br />

Lance Saunders<br />

put together a<br />

planter box in<br />

the Monarch<br />

Community<br />

Garden.<br />

‘I love this idea but will it really happen?’<br />

And I’m a very proactive person, so if you<br />

want it to happen, it’ll happen.”<br />

She said the support from local groups<br />

and organisations had been “amazing”.<br />

“All the working bees to get it all planted<br />

and sorted have been just amazing.”<br />

“I went to drop some flyers around the<br />

area and people were like ‘oh my gosh, it<br />

really did happen’. So it’s really exciting<br />

for the community and people that have<br />

gotten involved.”<br />

Bishopdale Menzshed member Richard<br />

Rendle said the group built and positioned<br />

the planter boxes, put together some<br />

old pallets to make compost bins and<br />

assembled a garden shed.<br />

“The community benefits and Menzshed<br />

members feel they are doing something<br />

useful in their retirement.”<br />
