We may have just missed Earth Day 2021, but we are pleased to announce that the New Weddington Isles Commemorative Gardens project continues apace. Located in the grounds of the Isles' temporary seat of Government in Canberra, Australia, these grounds will be accessible for local residents and are intended as a thank you to our host nation and a bequest when our Government takes its rightful place in situ in the Isles themselves, located in the South Pacific Ocean.
Having established a grant and local Government community funding, contractors moved in today and have already made good in-roads into clearing what was a disused wasteland; ready for re-soiling and replanting. Local residents and New Weddington Subjects will then add to the maintenance and design of this space as a place of peace, nature and harmony - all important elements in the Isles' vision.
As a part of our aspiration of "renewal" and our ecological commitments under the Micronational Declaration on Ecological Stewardship (2017) we have already installed self-watering planting systems and have taken delivery of a compost-accelerator mulch bin.
We will keep you abreast of developments in this exciting project; meantime here are some images of the Gardens with work already bearing fruit (pardon the pun!!)
