25.01.2022 Citrus Gall Wasp is spreading throughout Perth. Heres one option of treatment featured on Gardening Australia recently. Weve also just received a NEW organic treatment to try, too - Clay Spray. A superfine kaolin clay that when mixed with water and sprayed over citrus tree branches makes them less vulnerable to attack. Studies in America and NSW have shown encouraging results with this method. Why not give it a try?

25.01.2022 Phew! Hope you've had a happy Monday, Green Lifers! It was a warm one - looks like the mild weather has left us for a while... Keep hydrated (your plants, too!) and have a great day!

25.01.2022 August newsletter is out TODAY (Thursday) - so keep an eye on your inboxes. Tell a friend! They can sign up via our FB page or the newsletter tab on our website. (but sharing your chocolate is optional, obviously.)

24.01.2022 Its that time of year when Citrus Gall Wasp will be emerging, breeding & laying their eggs for another cycle. If this pest is active in your area, consider using our NEW Clay Spray ~ as per info in our September newsletter.

20.01.2022 The landlord had put sheep in the paddock next door. This little cutie is quite forward - Im not sure what it wants!?!

20.01.2022 Just a little while ago we received a recommendation from Chris (see below). What he DIDN'T tell you is that initially - we delivered the WRONG product to him! (Luckily it was in a bulkabag); we had to organise delivery of the correct product and collection of the incorrect one ASAP. We don't always get it right - but we do try! We appreciate our customers and know that as a small business, our survival depends on keeping them happy with great products and striving for great service, too. Thanks Chris for your patience with us, and happy gardening! #supportsmallbusiness #localbusiness

20.01.2022 Happy Monday, Green Lifers! While I know we have to deal with some annoying garden pests... At least were not going to be disturbing one of these "squirrels" any time soon!!! :-D Have a great day.

19.01.2022 L-R Coral lettuce, Buttercrunch lettuce, Cos lettuce & Iceberg lettuce. A bit of Coriander down the front to add zing to tonight’s tacos. So good to pick this fresh metres from the kitchen door.

19.01.2022 To all the mums (and mother figures) out there - hope you're having a wonderful day.

18.01.2022 Silverbeet. A reliable garden producer all year round - and very handy in the 'lean months' between peak winter & peak summer production. If you have it in abundance, here's an excellent recipe to use it. Enjoy! (and it's a good vegie to get in the ground now, too!) https://www.greenlifesoil.com.au/recipes/silverbeet-pie
