Garden efforts recognised
The gardening efforts of more than 160 residents from the Fendalton/Waimairi
Board area were acknowledged at the annual Community Pride Garden Awards. The awards, a joint-venture between the Fendalton/Waimari Community Board
and the Christchurch Beautifying Society, acknowledge the work of residential
gardeners who, by their efforts, have contributed to Christchurch’s Garden City
image. They also encourage all local residents to take pride in their streets and
garden frontages. The Christchurch Beautifying Society selected the gardens as part of its own
street and garden awards in January, with presentation of certificates to recipients
by Community Board members at an afternoon tea in March. |
