*Below is our gorgeous Committee member Crystal holding some freshly picked herbs & and kale from our garden**
Let me start off by saying that I am sure I felt the garden let out a HUGE sigh of relief with the cooler weather and the first real rain of the season. It has been a welcome change and with that we have been able to get some much needed jobs done around the garden.
Busy Bee Sunday 10th April
Was a fabulous success and the BIGGEST THANK YOU to those of you who came down to help. We managed to tick off the majority of the jobs on the list as well as a few more...which is an outstanding achievement!
Our shed is tidy with some new shelving, the raised garden beds are filled and planted with some herbs and the most delicious garlic.
We have started preparations for some ground level garden beds
**Stay tuned on more info on those and how to get your hands on your very own leased plot for the 22/23 season**

Task & Harvest
Our task and harvest events have been put on hold for this week due to the fact the summer crops are coming to an end. We are planning Autumn, winter plant and will keep you posted on that shortly. We will still need your help on compost turning, so if you are a financial member we will email you info on that in the coming week or keep an eye on the members only Facebook page for info.
