The seven neighbours from three houses all next to each other on Hargreaves Street looked quite a sight, set up on a patch of grass by the street with tables, chairs and a barbecue.
When asked why, the group pointed to one member, Michael Demeo, to explain.
"I just felt like it," Mr Demeo said.
Others said they were on the nature strip to celebrate how good the grass looked.
They said they were using it to justify the expense in keeping it so green and well-manicured.
