Neighbour Power: How the Community Came Together to Protect Sherburn Green Space

When neighbours come together, incredible things can happen. Across Winnipeg, we’ve seen that when people unite around a shared goal, they can make lasting change, The effort to preserve the Sherburn Green Space is a shining example of that.

This space means so much more than grass and trees. It’s where children play, families gather, and neighbours connect. It brings life to the community, offering a place of peace and belonging in the middle of our busy city.

The dedication shown by residents to preserve this space speaks volumes about what can happen when a community works together. Petitions, meetings, and countless conversations all made a difference. The Sherburn Green Space story reminds us that every voice matters and that when we stand together, we shape the future of our neighbourhoods.

This kind of community spirit is what makes Winnipeg strong – people coming together, caring for one another, and protecting the places that make our city feel like home.
