Collingwood Community Farm - '30'37"

We had a listen to audio from a rally over the weekend aimed at saving the Collingwood Community Gardens. The snippet included the experiences of a local 'plotter' and City of Yarra Councillor, Steve Jolly. At the end of the show we crossed live to the gardens to hear from organiser Giles Fielke on the crucial efforts to save the Gardens.
