FEBRUARY 2014 WORKING BEE

Summer at the Garden is an amazing experience in a subtropical paradise, and the February working bee was all play in the verdant abundance. 

Take a wander through the Garden food forest...
A colourful mob gathered to share in a variety of garden maintenance activities, including 'chop & drop' in the food forest, 'no dig' soil building in the 4 season vegetable beds, propagation in the nursery, path mulching and harvesting a bounty of vegetables, herbs and fruit to share.
The famous Garden feast, was held at 1pm with a huge spread of tasty organic dishes and lively conversation enjoyed by all. 




Illawarra mangoes are a marginal crop. It is when the Spring rains are absent that the fruit sets and we enjoy the richest and sweetest of the 'King of Fruits'...
