The team at Xyst were engaged by the Mackenzie District Council to spearhead the development of the Fairlie Cemetery Ashes Circle.
The project started with a comprehensive landscaping plan, led by Xyst’s in-house landscape architect. Staff then used these plans to engage with the local community, including Community Board Members, the Fairlie Lions, Veteran’s Affairs, the Fairlie RSA, and various other groups. Once plans were approved and community support was gained, staff procured contractors to undertake the planting and hard landscaping. Xyst also procured plants locally, submitted successful funding applications, and project managed the project through to completion leading to the revitalisation of the Fairlie Ashes Circle.
