Costa's On the Verge Community Garden
S23, E1: Program host Costa Georgiadis challenged his Bondi neighbours to take another look at their verge (or nature strip) with fresh eyes, and to think about how it might be better used - whether as a productive vegie patch, fruit orchard, or native, ornamental garden bed. With an inspired and enthusiastic neighbourhood behind him, Costa went to local council which, impressed by the level of community support, gave On the Verge the green light. From Costa's own verge transformation through to the development of others in the neighbourhood, On the Verge is both entertaining and inspiring, as passion for the project takes hold throughout Costa's local community. Take up Costa's challenge and learn how to begin your own verge garden! Topics include: dealing with local council, assessing a site, creating a no-dig garden bed and choosing a range of plantings.
