Cindy McLEISH (Eildon) (09:42): The Flowerdale Community House group are a great bunch of people, led by their effervescent coordinator Rebekah Grant. They provide a range of support services within their local community, and for the last three years they have been working tirelessly, tapping into volunteer power and various funding sources, to build a fabulous community garden. I was delighted to open the garden on Sunday 8 October and got to see how they have turned their vision of providing a mixed garden of vegies, flowers and natives into a wonderful garden space for people to connect to. I have no doubt it will be a valuable asset for the local community. Congratulations to Rebekah, along with her band of volunteers: Don Love, Jackie Hare, Rose Elsom, Jill Vizec, Michael Barrott, Gary and Jenny Leather and Joe Law.
