Belville Community Garden 10th Anniversary

Lodged by Ross Greer (Scottish Green Party) Standard Motion 16 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Belville Community Garden Trust, in Greenock, on its 10th anniversary; notes that the garden was established by local residents in 2014 and has since become a major food growing hub and community space, working with schools and local groups and coordinating arts- and health-related projects; understands that the garden has gone from strength to strength over the past decade, playing a critical role during the COVID-19 pandemic by providing food boxes to those in isolation; welcomes the direct employment opportunities and placements with local employers that the Trust provides; applauds the work done to put diversity and inclusion at the heart of its work; understands that a programme of events is currently ongoing to mark the anniversary, and wishes everyone involved with Belville Community Garden Trust every success for the future.
