Waste Not! Swap this Saturday 9-12

That's right. Cauliflowers as big as your head! In April! Bring some of your home grown fruit and veg to swap and you might be lucky enough to take a giant cauli home...

But seriously, what we can promise is great coffee and company. So come along from 9-12 on Saturday morning with something to share (size is not not an issue) and take home something special. don't believe me? take a look at Happy Earths description and photos of the bounty at last months swap: http://www.happyearth.com.au/

hope to see you there.

2 Part working bee

Hi all
With the Easter holidays and people away over long weekend we weren’t sure what to do about the Working Bee.  But a few of the crew went last week and got stuck in, rebuilding some of the front beds & planting a heap of seedlings. Way to go! Those seedlings will love this rain we have had over the last few days.

Anyway for those that want to do something this Sunday (11/4/10), ill be down there for a few hours from 10am.   Maddog.

P.S. The Harvest festival will also be on this Sunday at Osborne Park, Cliff Road Wollongong (opposite Belmore Basin) from 1 till 4pm. For more info check out  http://www.sustainableillawarra.com.au/Whats-On.html
