The Good Seeds have almost secured a portion of the Sinking Village site for a community garden - help us get it over the line
Maribyrnong City Council has given us a small window of
opportunity to put our views forward on a community garden at the
Sinking Village site (High St Yarraville opposite Coles).
We are writing to you because you've met us at a food swap, at one of our stalls or workshops or responded to our survey.
To The Good Seeds community gardens are so much more
than rectangular, individual plots. Community gardens are about creating
spaces to:
- grow and share produce
- educate
- share food
- share skills and
- socialise with likeminded people
Let
Maribyrnong City Council know that Yarraville's first community garden
needs to reflect the passion and vibrancy of the inner west.
Have a look at the two concepts the Council have proposed for the Sinking Village site. How do you think these concepts compare with the design we've come up with?

All feedback needs to be forwarded to Council by the 22nd of June 2012.
A big green thumbs up in advance for filling out the survey and posting it to Council as it isn't digitised on the website. Council is also welcoming feed back via their email.
Here's to getting our hands dirty,
The Good Seeds
