'Please pick': Homeowner's generous gesture to neighbours

A green-fingered resident in Brisbane has been praised for their generosity to their neighbours.

An image of a herb patch outside the front of a Greenslopes home in the city’s south was uploaded to Reddit last week.

Accompanying the selection of fresh herbs was a pair of scissors and a sign telling neighbours to help themselves.

“Please pick some herbs for dinner (or a cup of tea!),” a message read.

The selfless resident listed the herbs which were on offer including basil, rosemary, dill and chives.

They even indicate which herbs were to be planted next.

The online community gushed over the idea and hoped the concept would catch on.
