## Resource

A woman named Sharai spent 23 hours perched in a tree at Kurilpa Common, a beloved community garden in Brisbane, to protest its potential sale to developers. The site, unofficially used as a garden since the pandemic and even featured on Gardening Australia, holds deep personal meaning for her — including scattering a friend’s ashes there. Despite locals’ past efforts to protect it, including barricades in 2025, authorities argue the land was never officially designated as a garden and that housing development is a priority. Sharai, now in police custody on trespass charges, insists her tree-climbing act was the only way to physically halt the sale — a dramatic standoff symbolizing the growing tension between community spaces and urban development.
