皇家园艺学会推出了一项新的铁路站点绿化竞赛,旨在表彰英国各地为火车站增添绿色的志愿者工作1。苏格兰卡德罗斯社区有机花园因其在首届比赛中的卓越表现获得冠军,其融入社区各群体的积极努力获得了评委的特别认可1。
参与竞赛的五个入选站点分别为卡德罗斯、艾尔斯福德、马格胡尔、怀尔德格林和凯恩沙姆1。这些地方的志愿者通过种植抗旱或抗风植物、营造生态走廊等方式大幅改造了站点环境1。艾尔斯福德站的志愿者领导者Frank Belgrave表示,"这改变了村庄中心的面貌"1,而卡德罗斯站志愿者负责人Jane Connolly指出,"自2022年3月以来,车站中每一处可以改变的地方都得到了改善"1。比赛评选考量了美观度、野生动物友好性和气候适应性等多项标准1。
The Royal Horticultural Society has launched a competition recognizing volunteers across the United Kingdom who have undertaken greening projects at railway stations. 1 Cadzow Community Organic Garden in Scotland won the inaugural award, earning special commendation from judges for its commitment to engaging diverse community groups. 1
Five stations were selected for the competition: Cadzow, Alresford, Magherabuoy, Wylde Green, and Keynsham. 1 The judging criteria encompassed aesthetic appeal, wildlife-friendliness, and climate resilience. 1 At Alresford station, volunteer leader Frank Belgrave noted that the transformation work has had a profound impact on the locality, stating that "It's transformed the centre of the village." 1 Similarly, at Cadzow station, volunteer coordinator Jane Connolly reported that "Since March 2022, every bit of the station that can be changed, has been changed." 1
The volunteers have redesigned station environments through strategies including the planting of drought-resistant and wind-resistant vegetation and the creation of ecological corridors. 1 These efforts have brought both aesthetic improvements and strengthened community cohesion to their respective villages. 1
