Spring has sprung and Busy Bees are back on!

Today saw the first community Busy Bee of spring and the start of preparations to rotate the crops in the raised garden beds. It was wonderful to see the community come together in the garden again, after the cold weather, where meeting indoors at Crafting session was a much more desirable option.

Thank you to Ant, Beate, Bek, Ben, Beryl, Christine, Dave, Dayle, Ellen, Eli, Ethan, Jason, John, Karen, Leiato, Max, Michelle, Petrese, Roz, Sara, Tam, and Tauari, not to forget Juzzie and Chief, for being there today to contribute to the Busy Bee.

Coming together and being a part of this community initiative is what it is all about.

We listened to the community... we have organised a SUNDAY BUSY BEE for next weekend!

We can't wait to see all those eager local community members who would love to attend on a Sunday!

This Busy Bee we will once again be enjoy meeting new community members and catching up with old friends, having a good chat and laugh, planting some new seedlings and finishing some odd jobs around the place.

All welcome, whether young or old, able-bodied or not so able-bodied, regardless of gender... you all have a valuable contribution to make. Share with your friends and bring them along. The more, the merrier!

Please bring a mug. Morning tea and a cuppa supplied.

RSVP here

Looking forward to seeing you there 🌱

The 2024 AGM - a meeting with a twist

Thank you to everyone who attended the 2024 AGM last Saturday.

It was wonderful to have some new community members elected on the Committee for the coming year and also have returning Committee Members elected.

At the meeting it was fantastic to get a recap of the most 'fruitful' year we have had so far. If you missed it, you can view it here

We appreciated receiving new ideas for events, the garden and the Charity, as well as favourite options from the attendees. This will assist the Committee to head the Charity into the direction the community wish for PCG.

It was also wonderful to chat with one another over a delicious afternoon tea (thank you to everyone who spent the time baking delicious treats) and tour the garden with attendees who haven't had the privilege of spending time in the amazing space we have all created.

We were honoured to have our valued PCG VIPs Caitlin Collins MLA, Cr Christine Hamilton-Prime JP - City of Joondalup, Liam Staltari - Liberal Member for Carine, Ian Goodenough MP and Vince Connelly - Liberal for Moore in attendance. We are so appreciative of your time and support.

We are so excited to start the new membership year with our newly elected Committee.

Let's get this party started!!!
