A new community garden in Linville is set to bring people together — and provide plenty of fruit for jam-making — thanks to support from CleanCo’s Community Futures Fund. As a Queensland Government-owned clean energy company, CleanCo is proud to support initiatives that strengthen regional communities.

Our sponsorship of the Linville Progress Association community garden project has helped volunteers create a “jam wall” trellis for fruit trees, along with purchasing trees, gardening equipment, improved drainage and additional water outlets.

Local residents worked together to design the garden, located behind the community hall. The Progress Association hopes it will become a focal point for local celebrations, a source of fresh produce and a new attraction for visitors exploring the nearby Brisbane Valley Rail Trail.

The Linville community hall is already a thriving hub for the Somerset region, hosting craft groups, indoor sports and movie nights, and serving as an official disaster centre in times of emergency.

With support from CleanCo, the dream of a community garden for Linville is becoming a reality.
