Do you like fresh fruit? Do you want to see more free food in your community?

Planning is underway for a community garden and orchard for Radley Park in Woolston. The proposed Roimata Food Hub will include community fruit trees, vege beds, herb gardens, tunnel houses and more, benefiting both the Woolston community and wider Christchurch.

Before this project can get off the ground, we need to know if this is something the community wants!

Representatives from CCC and Sally Buck, chairperson of our local Community Board have shown great enthusiasm for this project. Both organisations are willing to invest resources to make this happen, but they need to see that the community supports the project. We've created this petition to be a "show of hands" to say that this is something we want in Woolston and Christchurch.

Why community gardens?

It's not just about getting the community eating more fresh fruit and vegetables. Successful community garden projects, both here in NZ and overseas, have shown that projects like this have wider benefits for the whole community, including…

Getting to know your neighbours
Helping reduce crime within the community through more people knowing each other, and encouraging people to be out and about in the neighbourhood,
Providing an opportunity to teach youth where food comes from, practical math skills, basic business principles, stewardship, responsibility, caring for the environment, job and life skills,
Creating cultural opportunities - welcoming new residents from various backgrounds into the neighbourhood, provide opportunities for community elders to pass on knowledge,
And,

Providing an inexpensive and hugely satisfying activity for both the young and less-young amongst us, allowing us to interact with each other in a socially meaningful and physically productive way.
Plus you get to eat things!
